From 5a52766b8087340ac19a2d7883658b55d317b93f Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: brian <brian> Date: Wed, 9 Jul 2008 21:07:15 +0000 Subject: [PATCH] b=15625 i=adilger i=nathan Service Tags. If the service tags package is installed on a Lustre node when a Lustre target is mounted, a service tag will be generated which can then optionally be collected by a Registration Client for addition to the Sun asset inventory system being offered at inventory.sun.com. --- lustre/doc/mount.lustre.8 | 12 ++++++++++++ 1 file changed, 12 insertions(+) diff --git a/lustre/doc/mount.lustre.8 b/lustre/doc/mount.lustre.8 index 4980db37c6..8254d881cc 100644 --- a/lustre/doc/mount.lustre.8 +++ b/lustre/doc/mount.lustre.8 @@ -117,6 +117,18 @@ Start the Lustre metadata target service from /dev/sda1 on mountpoint /mnt/test/ .B mount -t lustre -L testfs-MDT0000 -o abort_recov /mnt/test/mdt Start the testfs-MDT0000 service (by using the disk label), but abort the recovery process. +.SH NOTES +If the Service Tags tool (from the sun-servicetag package) can be found in +/opt/sun/servicetag/bin/stclient an inventory service tag will be created +reflecting the Lustre service being provided.
