Pass in a switch config file that CANU will inject into the generated config. A use case would be to add custom site connections. This config file will overwrite previously generate config.
The custom config file type is YAML and a single file can be used for multiple switches. You will need to specify the switch name and what config inject. The custom config feature is using the hierarchical configuration library, documentation can be found here.
Custom config file examples:

To generate switch configuration with custom config injection.
NOTE The
--corners
and--tabs
arguments are often provided in the SHCD Excel file. The example below uses example values.
canu generate switch config \
--csm CSM_VERSION \
-a full \
--shcd FILENAME.xlsx \
--tabs INTER_SWITCH_LINKS,NON_COMPUTE_NODES,HARDWARE_MANAGEMENT,COMPUTE_NODES \
--corners J14,T44,J14,T48,J14,T24,J14,T23 \
--sls-file SLS_FILE \
--name sw-spine-001 \
--custom-config CUSTOM_CONFIG_FILE.yaml
CANU can also generate switch config for all the switches on a network.
In order to generate network config, a valid SHCD or CCJ must be passed in and system variables must be read in from
either CSI output or the SLS API. The instructions are exactly the same as the
above generate Switch Config](#generate-switch-config)
except there will not be a hostname and a folder must be
specified for config output using the --folder FOLDERNAME
flag.
To generate switch config from a CCJ paddle run:
canu generate network config \
--csm CSM_RELEASE \
--ccj paddle.json \
--sls-file SLS_FILE \
--folder FOLDERNAME
To generate switch config from SHCD run:
canu generate network config \
--csm CSM_RELEASE \
-a full \
--shcd FILENAME.xlsx \
--tabs INTER_SWITCH_LINKS,NON_COMPUTE_NODES,HARDWARE_MANAGEMENT,COMPUTE_NODES \
--corners J14,T44,J14,T48,J14,T24,J14,T23 \
--sls-file SLS_FILE \
--folder switch_config
Example output from the above command:
sw-spine-001 Config Generated
sw-spine-002 Config Generated
sw-leaf-001 Config Generated
sw-leaf-002 Config Generated
sw-leaf-003 Config Generated
sw-leaf-004 Config Generated
sw-cdu-001 Config Generated
sw-cdu-002 Config Generated
sw-leaf-bmc-001 Config Generated
This option allows extension and maintenance of switch configurations beyond plan-of-record. A YAML file expresses custom configurations across the network and these configurations are merged with the plan-of-record configurations.
WARNING: Extreme diligence should be used applying custom configurations which override plan-of-record generated configurations. Custom configurations will overwrite generated configurations! Override/overwrite is by design to support and document cases where site-interconnects demand “non-standard” configurations or a bug must be worked around.
The instructions are exactly the same as Generate Switch Config with Custom Config Injection
To generate network configuration with custom config injection run
canu generate network config \
--csm 1.2 \
-a full \
--shcd FILENAME.xlsx \
--tabs INTER_SWITCH_LINKS,NON_COMPUTE_NODES,HARDWARE_MANAGEMENT,COMPUTE_NODES \
--corners J14,T44,J14,T48,J14,T24,J14,T23 \
