# workflow for a new ecmc server
## A bit unclear
* Setup ILO, 8213 (maybe hardware group)
## hardware group (Kurt)
* Order servers (keeps stock)
* Add server to packet-fence (default to office network)
* Add users to ecmc server
* Add hostname (need info from controls)
* Add ILO network interface to packet-fence (default role: office network)
* Add ILO hostname if provided in advance, otherwise controls needs to take care
* Keeps inventory up to date
* Sometimes equips with **empty** usb stick
* Install (power and network)
## controls
* Update boot parameters to boot from usb
* Add network interface to boot from (e.g. eth0) to packet-fence
* Set [role](#packet-fence-roles) in packet-fence for ILO and boot network interfaces
* [Prepare usb stick](#prepare-usb-stick)
* [Add host to warewulf config nodes.conf](#Add-warewulf-conf)
* [Add host startup cfg](#Add-ecmc-server-cfg)
* Configure IOC:s
* [Add host startup cfg](README.md)
* Configure IOC's (e.g. shellbox)
# prepare usb stick
# packet-fence roles
Prepare a boot usb stick:
```bash
# copy to usb stick
sls:
https://jira.psi.ch/browse/SLS2CASIT-96
# prepare boot usb stick
```shell
# copy EFI folder to usb stick
cp -r /afs/psi.ch/group/8211/anicic/iPXE/warewulf-ipxe/USBstick/EFI /path/to/your/usbstick
```
# add warewulf conf
# add server to warewulf nodes.conf
Add server to warewulf config (easiest to edit directlly in gitlab page):
Add server to warewulf config (easiest to edit directly in gitlab page):
https://git.psi.ch/controls-ci/warewulf-node-config/-/blob/master/nodes.conf
**NOTE**: The simplest is to copy another host and update the needed data.
**NOTE**: Configure only the boot network interface in nodes.conf. EtherCAT interfaces are configured in ETHERCATDRVR (see [README.md](README.md))
