StarlingX Maintenance supports host power and reset control through
both IPMI and Redfish Platform Management protocols when the host's
BMC (Board Management Controller) is provisioned.
The power and reset action commands for Redfish are learned through
HTTP payload annotations at the Systems level; "/redfish/v1/Systems.
The existing maintenance implementation only supports the
"ResetType@Redfish.AllowableValues" payload property annotation at
the #ComputerSystem.Reset Actions property level.
However, the Redfish schema also supports an 'ActionInfo' extension
at /redfish/v1/Systems/1/ResetActionInfo.
This update adds support for the 'ActionInfo' extension for Reset
and power control command learning.
For more information refer to the section 6.3 ActionInfo 1.3.0 of
the Redfish Data Model Specification link in the launchpad report.
Test Plan:
PASS: Verify CentOS build and patch install.
PASS: Verify Debian build and ISO install.
PASS: Verify with Debian redfishtool 1.1.0 and 1.5.0
PASS: Verify reset/power control cmd load from newly added second
level query from ActionInfo service.
Failure Handling: Significant failure path testing with this update
PASS: Verify Redfish protocol is periodically retried from start
when bm_type=redfish fails to connect.
PASS: Verify BMC access protocol defaults to IPMI when
bm_type=dynamic but failed connect using redfish.
Connection failures in the above cases include
- redfish bmc root query fails
- redfish bmc info query fails
- redfish bmc load power/reset control actions fails
- missing second level Parameters label list
- missing second level AllowableValues label list
PASS: Verify sensor monitoring is relearned to ipmi from failed and
retried with bm_type=redfish after switch to bm_type=dynamic
or bm_type=ipmi by sysinv update command.
Regression:
PASS: Verify with CentOS redfishtool 1.1.0
PASS: Verify switch back and forth between ipmi and redfish using
update bm_type=ipmi and bm_type=redfish commands
PASS: Verify switch from ipmi to redfish usinf bm_type=dynamic for
hosts that support redfish
PASS: Verify redfish protocol is preferred in bm_type=dynamic mode
PASS: Verify IPMI sensor monitoring when bm_type=ipmi
PASS: Verify IPMI sensor monitoring when bm_type=dynamic
and redfish connect fails.
PASS: Verify redfish sensor event assert/clear handling with
alarm and degrade condition for both IPMI and redfish.
PASS: Verify reset/power command learn by single level query.
PASS: Verify mtcAgent.log logging
