Keyword comment

required:    false
scopable:    false
rbac:        This driver group requires the root grant.

Description:

A free form text describing the role of the object, of the node, or of the section it is set in.

The keyword is accepted in any section, so the DEFAULT section can document a configuration as a whole, and a resource, pool, heartbeat, array or network section can document itself.

The agent does not interpret the value.

Keyword key

required:    false
scopable:    false
rbac:        This driver group requires the root grant.

Example:

key=/path/to/key

Description:

The path to the private key to use to log in the switch.

Keyword method

required:    false
scopable:    false
candidates:  telnet, ssh
default:     ssh
rbac:        This driver group requires the root grant.

Example:

method=ssh

Description:

The method to use to connect to the switch.

• ssh Log in with the private key key points to, or with the password of the password secret.

• telnet Refused: telnet sends the password in clear, and the switches have it disabled by default. The value is accepted in the configuration of a node upgraded from v2, and the inventory of the switch fails with a message asking for ssh.

The key of the switch is trusted on the first connection, and recorded in the known hosts of the root user: a later connection presenting another key is refused.

Keyword name

required:    false
scopable:    false
rbac:        This driver group requires the root grant.

Example:

If not set, fallback to the section name suffix.

scopable:    false
rbac:        This driver group requires the root grant.

Example:

password=mysec/password

Description:

The password to use to log in, read from a secret.

The value is from <path> key <name>, or a sec name alone, in the system namespace, whose password key is read.

Either password or key must be specified.

Keyword type

scopable:    false
candidates:  brocade
rbac:        This driver group requires the root grant.

Keyword username
