Host Management - autotest-rpc-client host¶
NOTE: THIS IS ONLY PARTIALLY DONE.
The following actions are available to manage hosts:
# autotest-rpc-client host help
Usage: autotest-rpc-client host [create|delete|list|stat|mod|jobs] [options] <hosts>
Options:
-h, --help show this help message and exit
-g, --debug Print debugging information
--kill-on-failure Stop at the first failure
--parse Print the output using colon separated key=value
fields
-v, --verbose
-w WEB_SERVER, --web=WEB_SERVER
Specify the autotest server to talk to
-M MACHINE_FLIST, --mlist=MACHINE_FLIST
File listing the machines
Creating a Host¶
# autotest-rpc-client host create help
usage: autotest-rpc-client host create [options] <hosts>
options:
-h, --help show this help message and exit
-g, --debug Print debugging information
--kill-on-failure Stop at the first failure
--parse Print the output using colon separated key=value
fields
-v, --verbose
-w WEB_SERVER, --web=WEB_SERVER
Specify the autotest server to talk to
--mlist=MACHINE_FLIST
File listing the machines
-l, --lock Create the hosts as locked
-u, --unlock Create the hosts as unlocked (default)
-t PLATFORM, --platform=PLATFORM
Sets the platform label
-b LABELS, --labels=LABELS

Multiple hosts can be created with one command. The hostname(s) can be
specified on the command line or in a file using the --mlist option.
You can specify the platform type, labels and ACLs for all the newly
added hosts. If you want the hosts to be locked, specify --locked
flag. The scheduler will not assign jobs to a locked host.
# cat /tmp/my_machines
host0
host1
# Create 2 hosts, locked and add them to the my_acl ACL.
# autotest-rpc-client host create --mlist /tmp/my_machines -a my_acl -l
Added hosts:
host0, host1
