HP Insight Orchestration 6.3 User Guide

The “inventoryList.xml” file is read from the file system and its contents are then sent directly

to the ESA web service. The ESA web service processes the returned XML document and hands it

back to Logical Server Management (LSM), which functions as the upper level inventory manager.

LSM will then make a second workflow call for each server.

serverInfo.xml

The file serverInfo.xml contains a detailed definition for each of the servers declared in the

“inventoryList.xml” file. The following example is a definition for an HP rack mount server.

The <handle/> and <uuid/> elements tie this entry back to the “inventoryList.xml” file and

must match.

The <localStorageList/> element is used to declare a single direct attach boot disk that is 68 GB

in size.

The <networkInterfaceList/> element is used to declare the set of one or more NICs for the server.

It is critical that both the <macAddress/> and the <networkInterfaceName/> be correctly specified.

Specifically, the <networkInterfaceName/> correcsponds to a named network from the Insight

Orchestration Networks tab. This declares which named network the NIC is attached to within the

data center.

<serverName>MyDLRackMount</serverName>
