Adding new server data to NPS toolkit VM

Perform the following steps to add new server data to NPS toolkit VM:
Procedure
  1. To add a new node, use the Addon Servers UI to generate the JSON file and run the following command with the location of the JSON file:

    nps add-infra -f <location of the server profile JSON file>

    NOTE:
    • The JSON file for adding nodes must be generated using the Addon Servers UI only.

    • The following is a sample format of the JSON generated using the Addon servers UI:

      {
      "topology_name": "<topology_name_same as starter kit>",
      "topology_modules": [
      <topology_modules_of_starter_kit> ],
      "topology_data": {
      "infra": {
      "servers": [
      {
      "description": "Description",
      "hostname": ""<Name of the server>",
      "hw_profile": "<Name of the server profile>",
      "ilo": "<IP address of iLO>",
      "user": ""<User name>",
      "password": ""<password>",
      "role": "<Role of the server>",
      "model": "<Model of the server"
      }
      ],
      "oobm_type": "manual",
      "description": "<description>"
      }
      }
      }
  2. Verify the list of servers using the following command:
    #nps show --data servers
