Updating Expected Hosts Manifest

There is a table in the carbide-api database, that holds the following information about the expected hosts:

  • Chassis Serial Number
  • BMC MAC Address
  • BMC manufacturer's set login
  • BMC manufacturer's set password
  • DPU's chassis serial number (only needed for DGX-H100, or other machines that do not have NetworkAdapter Serial number available in the host redfish).

There is a carbide-admin-cli command to manipulate expected machines table. update, add, delete commands allow operating on individual elements of the expected machines table. erase and replace-all operate on all the entries at once.

Additionally, the expected machines table can be exported as a JSON file with carbide-admin-cli -f json em show command. Likewise, a JSON file can be used to import and overwrite all existing values with forge-admin-cli em replace-all <filename> command.
