e) Write the
index
of the above
machine.nics[
index
].name
value into the work table in column
NIC
Array ID
, in the row corresponding to
eth
N
.
For the sample output from the step above, the work table would look like this:
Serial Bus Path
MAC Address on the
New Chassis
Ethernet Port Name

0000:01:00.0
00:25:90:fd:e8:7c eth0

f) Update the database entry for
machine.nics[
N
].hwaddr
with the corresponding MAC address for
eth
N
from your work table.
Important:
Use capital letters for the MAC address.
machine.nics[0].hwaddr = '
NEW_MAC_ADDRESS_FOR_ETHN
'
For example,
machine.nics[0].hwaddr = '00:25:90:FD:E8:7C'
machine.nics[1].hwaddr = '00:25:90:FD:E8:7E'
machine.nics[2].hwaddr = '00:25:90:FD:E8:7F'
machine.nics[3].hwaddr = '90:E2:BA:7C:5A:FD'
machine.nics[4].hwaddr = '00:25:90:FD:E8:7D'
machine.nics[5].hwaddr = '90:E2:BA:7C:5A:FC'
machine.nics[6].hwaddr = '90:E2:BA:7C:5D:A4'
machine.nics[7].hwaddr = '90:E2:BA:7C:5D:A5'
g) Update the database entry for
machine.nics[8].hwaddr
with the corresponding IPMI MAC address
from your work table, under
MAC Address of Node
.
Important:
Use capital letters for the MAC address.
For example,
machine.nics[8].hwaddr = '0C:C4:7A:36:8B:12'
