Integration

This artifact in in a private repository so you have first to edit your pom.xml to declare them:

<repositories>
    <repository>
        <id>btrp-releases</id>
        <url>http://btrp.inria.fr/repos/releases</url>
    </repository>
    <repository>
        <id>btrp-snapshots</id>
        <url>http://btrp.inria.fr/repos/snapshot-releases</url>
    </repository>
</repositories>

Next, just declare the dependency:

<dependency>
   <groupId>btrplace</groupId>
   <artifactId>actuator-ipmi</artifactId>
   <version>1.1-SNAPSHOT</version>
</dependency>

Building from sources

Requirements:

• JDK 7+
• maven 3+

The source of the released versions are directly available in the Tag section. You can also download them using github features. Once downloaded, move to the source directory then execute the following command to make the jar:

$ mvn clean install

If the build succeeded, the resulting jar will be automatically installed in your local maven repository and available in the target sub-folder.

Documentation

• releases: http://btrp.inria.fr/actuator-ipmi/ (apidocs always refers to the last release)
• snapshot-releases: http://btrp.inria.fr/actuator-ipmi/apidocs-snapshot

Usage

Look at the PowerUpActuator and the PowerDownActuator classes. These classes allows to boot or to shutdown a node through the IPMI protocol.

Sample builders are provided to provide the required parameters. However, these builders are very specific to the way you store the parameters (protocol versions, credentials, servers address, ...). In practice, you may then have to define your own builder to fit your specificities.
