NAME
ipmxml2txt
- Insight Control Power Management XML to text conversion tool
SYNOPSIS
ipmxml2txt input_xml_file
DESCRIPTION
The purpose of this tool is to convert a HPSIM XML representation of data center topology by device, rack,
and row into a flat text representation. The input may be created by mxnode -lf. Relationships between
device and rack can be described solely in the text file or synthesized in the XML using the artificial
<sw-attribute name="RackName">southamerica</sw-attribute>
This tool writes to standard out and can be redirected to a file. Any user with file permissions can read an
xml or text file. The common attribute:value text format is described in ipm.1m in detail.
To make this XML unambiguous, the first node must either be a rack with the DatacentreID sw-attribute set,
or be a device with the hw-attribute DeviceType set to data center (see examples).
EXAMPLES
This is a sample text output file. Case and spacing are ignored by the parser.
