lldp information within uyuni
Dear uyuni users, how do you query uyuni-managed systems for lldp information like connected switch/ports, etc? We are about to install a bunch of bare-metal server systems and would like to ensure all cabling is correct / as expected. Currently uyuni does not show any information about which network interface is connected to which switch interface. Is there any option to get it into uyuni GUI? Or can someone recommend any salt code for querying it? BR Heiner

That's an interesting idea to have such information available in Uyuni, right now I don't think there is a way to do that.
Or can someone recommend any salt code for querying it?
To rollout a lldpd config you might want to take a look at https://github.com/salt-formulas/salt-formula-lldp Query those data could be done by running the command "lldpctl -f json" and process the json output. Alternatively you might want to give https://www.librenms.org a try, even though it does lot more than just lldp. Cheers Dominik -- The Wombelix Post https://dominik.wombacher.cc
