NAME

 flcreate - SMCT command to create a generic flash archive from the node group software

SYNOPSIS

 flcreate -f flash-archive -n swl-name -v swl-version -g node-group-name [-e export-dir] [-c config-dir] [-l logfile] [-V verbosity-level] [-h]

DESCRIPTION

Do not use the SMCT tool with the current patch level of the Foundation Services product.

The flcreate command creates a generic flash archive from the node group software that is installed on the prototype machine. This command is run once for each master-eligible and dataless node group, as each node group is processed individually.

The flcreate command must be run as a superuser.

The following configuration files are used by flcreate to configure the network between the prototype machine and the installation server. They must be completed before running the flcreate command:

  • install-server.conf

    For more information on the install-server.conf file, see the install-server.conf(4) man page.

  • master-system.conf

    For more information on the master-system.conf file, see the master-system.conf(4) man page.

OPTIONS

The options that you can use with the flcreate command are:

-f flash-archive

Absolute path and file name of the flash archive. If only the name of the flash archive is provided, the flash archive is created in the default directory specified by the SMCT variable SMCT_FLASH_DIR. This is an ASCII string.

-n swl-name

Name of the software load to process. This is an ASCII string.

-v swl-version

Version of the software load to process. This is an ASCII string.

-g node-group-name

Name of the nodes group associated to the flash archive. This is an ASCII string defined in the file cluster.conf.

-e export-dir

Directory where the software load data has been copied to by the slexport command. This option overrides the export directory specified by the SMCT variable SMCT_EXPORT_DIR, which is defined in the smct.env file. For more information on the smct.env file, see the nhsmctsetup(1M) man page.

-c config-dir

Directory where the cluster configuration files are located. This option overrides the configuration directory specified by the SMCT variable SMCT_DEFAULT_CONFIG_DIR, which is defined in the smct.env file. For more information on the smct.env file, see the nhsmctsetup(1M) man page.

-l log-file

Name of the file that is sent information and error messages. By default these messages are displayed on the console.

-V verbose-level

Verbosity level. Values are 1, 2, or 3, where 1 is minimal traces and 3 is detailed information.

-h

Displays help information.
