Supermarket Belongs to the Community

Supermarket belongs to the community. While Chef has the responsibility to keep it running and be stewards of its functionality, what it does and how it works is driven by the community. The chef/supermarket repository will continue to be where development of the Supermarket application takes place. Come be part of shaping the direction of Supermarket by opening issues and pull requests or by joining us on the Chef Mailing List.

iLO Cookbook

Cookbook Version
Travis Build Status
Chef Build Status

Enables configuration of HPE iLOs via their APIs.

Requirements

  • Chef 12.7+
  • iLO 4

Cookbook Dependencies

  • none

How to use the iLO Cookbook:

This cookbook is not intended to include any recipes.
Use it by specifying a dependency on this cookbook in your own cookbook.

# my_cookbook/metadata.rb
...
depends 'ilo'

Now you can use the resources this cookbook provides. See below for some examples.

iLO Authentication

Each of the resources below requires you to pass in the info necessary to connect with the iLO API.
The basic structure accepted by the ilos property is an array of hashes (or ILO_SDK::Client objects):

ilos = [
  {
    host: 'ilo1.example.com',  # Required. IP or hostname
    user: 'Administrator',     # Optional. Defaults to 'Administrator'
    password: 'secret123',     # Required
    ssl_enabled: false         # Optional
  },
  {
    host: '10.0.0.3',
    user: 'User2',
    password: 'secret456'
  }
]

This array can be built using a variety of different sources, including [encrypted] databags, attributes, or read from json or yaml files.
For example:

# Set directly in recipe:
ilo_list1 = []
ilo_list1.push { host: 'ilo1.example.com', user: 'Administrator', password: 'secret123' }

# Read from data_bag:
ilo_list2 = data_bag_item('ilo_secrets', 'data_center_1')

# Load from yaml file:
ilo_list3 = YAML.load_file('/root/ilo_secrets.yml')

iLO Resources

The following resources are available for usage in your recipes.
We give examples to show how to use each resource, but there are much more detailed examples in the [examples](examples) directory.
You may also find the [recipes in the cookbook used for testing](spec/fixtures/cookbooks/ilo_test/recipes) helpful as examples.
