Add Liquid-Cooled Cabinets to SLS

This procedure adds one or more liquid-cooled cabinets and associated CDU management switches to SLS.

NOTES

This procedure is intended to be used in conjunction with the top level Add additional Liquid-Cooled Cabinets to a System procedure.
This procedure will only add the liquid-cooled hardware present in an EX2500 cabinet with a single liquid-cooled chassis and a single air-cooled chassis.
An alternative to this procedure can be found here: Add A Cabinet To SLS Using CANI.

Prerequisites

The Cray command line interface (CLI) tool is initialized and configured on the system. See Configure the Cray CLI.
The latest CSM documentation is installed on the system. See Check for latest documentation.
Collect information for the liquid-cooled cabinets being added to the system. For each cabinet collect:
- Cabinet component name (xname) (for example x1004)
- Hardware Management Network (HMN) VLAN ID configured on the CEC (for example 3004)
- Node Management Network (NMN) VLAN ID configured on the CEC (for example 2004)
- Starting compute node ID (NID) (for example 2025)
- Cabinet type: Mountain (8 chassis) or Hill (2 chassis)
Collect information for the CDU switches (if any) being added to the system. For each CDU management switch, collect:
- CDU switch component name (xname) (for example d1w1)
- CDU switch brand (for example Dell or Aruba)
- CDU switch alias (for example sw-cdu-004)

Procedure

(ncn-m#) Perform an SLS dump state operation:

cray sls dumpstate list --format json > sls_dump.json
cp -v sls_dump.json sls_dump.original.json

For each new liquid-cooled cabinet being added to the system, collect the following information about each cabinet:

Cabinet component name (xname) (for example x1004)
Hardware Management Network (HMN) VLAN ID configured on the CEC (for example 3004)
Node Management Network (NMN) VLAN ID configured on the CEC (for example 2004)
Starting compute node ID (NID) (for example 2025)
Cabinet type: Mountain (8 chassis) or Hill (2 chassis)

The inspect_sls_cabinets.py script can be used to help display information about existing cabinets present in the system:

/usr/share/doc/csm/scripts/operations/system_layout_service/inspect_sls_cabinets.py sls_dump.json

Example output on a system with 1 air-cooled cabinet and 4 liquid-cooled cabinets:

Writing updated SLS state to sls_dump.json

NOTE: If adding more than one cabinet and contiguous NIDs are desired, the value of the Next available NID 2280 can be used as the value for the --start-nid argument when adding the next cabinet.

Possible Errors:

Problem	Error Message	Resolution
Duplicate Cabinet Xname	`Error x1000 already exists in sls_dump.json!`	The cabinet has already present in SLS. Ensure the new cabinet has a unique component name (xname), or the cabinet is already present in SLS.
Duplicate NID values	`Error found duplicate NID 3000`	Need to choose a different starting NID value for the cabinet that does not overlap with existing nodes.
Duplicate Cabinet HMN VLAN ID:	`Error found duplicate VLAN 3022 with subnet cabinet_1001 in HMN_MTN`	Ensure that the this new cabinet has an unique HMN VLAN ID.
Duplicate Cabinet NMN VLAN ID	`Error found duplicate VLAN 3023 with subnet cabinet_1001 in NMN_MTN`	Ensure that the this new cabinet has an unique NMN VLAN ID.

(ncn-m#) Inspect cabinet subnet and VLAN allocations in the system after adding the new cabinets.

For each new CDU switch being added to the system, collect the following information about it:
- CDU switch component name (xname)
  - If within a CDU: dDwW - dD : where D is the Coolant Distribution Unit (CDU). - wW : where W is the management switch in a CDU.
  - If within a standard rack: xXcChHsS
    - xX : where X is the River cabinet identification number (the figure above is 3000).
    - cC : where C is the chassis identification number.
      - If the switch is within an air-cooled cabinet, then this should be 0.
      - If the switch is within an air-cooled chassis in an EX2500 cabinet, then this should be 4.
    - hH : where H is the slot number in the cabinet (height).
    - sS : where S is the horizontal space number.
- CDU switch brand (for example Dell or Aruba)
- CDU switch alias (for example sw-cdu-004 )

(ncn-m#) For each new CDU switch, add it to the SLS state dump taken in step 1 in ascending order based on the switch alias:

/usr/share/doc/csm/scripts/operations/system_layout_service/add_cdu_switch.py sls_dump.json \
    --cdu-switch d1w1 \

Writing updated SLS state to sls_dump.json

(ncn-m#) Inspect the differences between the original SLS state file and the modified one.
```
diff sls_dump.original.json sls_dump.json
```
(ncn-m#) Perform a SLS load state operation to replace the contents of SLS with the data from the sls_dump.json file.
```
cray sls loadstate create sls_dump.json
```
MEDS will automatically start looking for potential hardware in the newly added liquid-cooled cabinets.

NOTE: No hardware in these new cabinets will be discovered until the management network has been reconfigured to support the new cabinets, and routes have been added to the management NCNs in the system.
