识别目标

从 ECS/ObjectScale 系统拓扑输出中识别 NAN 节点 IP机架颜色(名称)VDC 名称

连接到机架的活动节点:
Command:

# ssh master.rack

运行以下命令

# sudo xdoctor --top --vdc

此命令显示 ECS 系统拓扑,包括 VDC、机架和节点。

admin@ecsnode1:~> sudo xdoctor --top --vdc

Note: 'xdoctor --top --details' displays detailed VDC -and Rack information

找到虚拟数据中心 (VDC):

  • 查找以以下内容开头的行:
    |- Local VDC - ID:[…] Name:[VDC1]
  • VDC Name显示在行的末尾。
    示例:
    VDC1

要查找机架名称,请执行以下作:

  • 在 VDC 部分下,找到 Local RACK
    |- Local RACK - Name:[red] Primary:[169.254.1.1] PSNT:[…]
  • 机架颜色由“Name”字段指示。
    示例: red

识别感兴趣的 NAN IP 节点

  • 在机架下,列出了每个 节点 及其名称和 IP:
    |- Node 1, [ provo], NAN.IP:[ 169.254.1.1], Public.IP:[ 0.0.0.0 ] |- Node 2, [ sandy], NAN.IP:[ 169.254.1.2],

KB

运行 KB 自动化脚本
在下面的示例中,KB 79798 的自动化脚本在节点 169.254.6.2 上执行。

提醒:通过运行以下命令,可以找到可用的知识库自动化脚本:
sudo xdoctor autopilot --kb-list
提醒:通过运行以下命令,可以找到可用的目标节点:
getrackinfo
getclusterinfo
或两者兼而有之

自动化执行行为

所有自动化作都在 一个屏幕会话中执行,并且系统一次只允许 一个并发执行 。如果自动化处于无人看管的状态超过 1 小时,屏幕会话 将自动中止 且无法恢复。

最初启动自动化时, 屏幕会话命令将打印到终端。这允许您在需要时 重新连接到会话 ,只要它在 1 小时窗口内即可。

列出并重新连接命令:

# sudo screen -ls
# sudo screen -r [session_name]

多个并发会话的示例:

admin@ecsnode1:~> sudo xdoctor autopilot --kb 79798 --target-node 169.254.1.1
Checking for existing screen sessions...
