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
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.
