Cause

Filen kunde inte parsa inventory.ini när den skapades, vilket gjorde att filen var tom.

Resolution

Det här kommandot återskapar inventory.ini-filen när ett problem upptäcks, inklusive under automatiserad generering av inventeringsfiler, och kan även köras manuellt när som helst ett problem med filen hittas.

sudo xdoctor autopilot --inventory
admin@ecsnode1:~> sudo xdoctor autopilot --inventory 
Updated inventory file /opt/emc/xdoctor/config/inventory.ini

På nyare versioner:

sudo xdoctor ansible --update
