Validating range of servers with the provided hardware precheck profile

Use the nps hw-precheck command to validate the range of server resources with the given hardware precheck profile.

All servers in NPS between the provided IP range (including the starting and ending IP) will be listed. The resource details provided in the given precheck profile will be validated against those servers. The output displays whether the server has optimal, minimal, or insufficient resources based on the values provided in the precheck profiles.

To list the available profiles for hardware precheck, use the following command: 
nps show -p hwprecheck_profiles

Syntax

nps hw-precheck -p <hw_precheck_profile_name> --range <server_start_ip,server_end_ip> [--options]

Parameters

-p
Hardware precheck profile name to validate.
--range

  • Server_start_ip: Starting IP address of the range.

  • Server_end_ip: Ending IP address of the range.

Optional parameters

  • --cpu: To check CPU.

  • --memory: To check memory.

  • --storage: To check storage.
