Explain why the riscv64 templates disable the installer's kdump add-on,
how to reserve memory for crash dumps on an installed node, and what
diskless images reserve by default.
Document the riscv64 kickstart templates that work around the EL10
anaconda's missing RISC-V EFI platform, where grub2.riscv64 and the
riscv64 Genesis packages come from, which dependencies a riscv64
management node takes from the riscv64 dependency repository, and why
xCAT-server only recommends perl-DB_File.
Add the riscv64 page to the cluster management guide (UEFI + grub2 boot
path, discovery through mknb's grub2 network configurations, stateful and
stateless provisioning, the dependency picture for a management node on
riscv64, limitations), list riscv64 in the node object attributes and in
the support matrices, add the architecture to the cross-build page for
stateless images, extend the grub2 install guide (and fix its swapped
x86_64/aarch64 file names), the uninstall package lists, the DHCP backend
validation matrix and the mknb/genimage man pages, and carry the riscv64
schema values into the generated nodetype, osimage, noderes, node and
group references.
xcat.conf was installed as an ordinary payload file and then deleted and
recreated from the Apache-version template in %post. rpm therefore held
no record of what was on disk, and an upgrade replaced an edited file
silently, leaving neither .rpmnew nor .rpmsave. A site that had added
Indexes to the /install block lost it on upgrade and directory listings
began returning 403.
Select the Apache 2.2 or 2.4 configuration at build time, using the same
distribution macros the rest of the spec already relies on, and mark
both /etc/httpd/conf.d/xcat.conf and /etc/apache2/conf.d/xcat.conf as
%config(noreplace). rpm then keeps a modified file and installs the new
vendor version alongside it as xcat.conf.rpmnew.
The old payload recorded the 2.2 file while %post wrote the 2.4 one, so
rpm cannot distinguish a stock file from an edited one across the
transition. A migration compares the active file with the templates the
outgoing package saved under conf.orig and removes it only when it is a
regular file still byte-for-byte identical to one of them. A stock
upgrade then completes without an unnecessary .rpmnew, and anything that
differs is left untouched.
That migration runs in %pretrans, not %pre. rpm fixes each config file's
fate before %pre, so removing the active file there can happen after rpm
has already resolved to write only xcat.conf.rpmnew, leaving the system
with no active configuration at all. %pretrans runs before that decision.
It is an embedded Lua scriptlet because a pre-transaction scriptlet
cannot rely on any dependency being unpacked yet, which also means the
comparison needs no external tool.
bc was needed only by the version check the service-node package no
longer performs.
The Apache directives are unchanged. Document a later-loading conf.d
file as the place for site rules, since that survives upgrades without a
merge.
Record that a node with more than one BMC is configured one BMC at a
time and that a comma separated value gives one setting per BMC, in
both the man page source and the checked-in text.
genpdu read negative-capable sensors from the unsigned value column,
which the MIB leaves undefined for them: a PX4 answers it with 0 for
inlet reactive power and carries the reading in the signed column. Use
SensorSignedMinimum to pick the column, as the MIB specifies. The
unsigned column is still needed for active energy, whose range exceeds
Integer32 and reads 0 in the signed one.
An unreachable PDU or a wrong credential looked like a PDU without
switched outlets, since the switching probe was the first exchange with
the device. Probe pduCount first (implemented by every PDU2 agent,
verified on PX2, PX3 and PX4) and return no session when it fails, so
callers print "Couldn't connect to <pdu>". Warn when pduCount is not 1
rather than refusing: a linked primary still answers for its own
outlets.
Add unit tests for the genpdu sensor, session and inventory paths.

Add a new pdutype (genpdu) for PDUs implementing the Raritan PDU2-MIB.
A single MIB covers the Raritan PX2/PX3/PX4/PXC/SRC/PXO/BCM series, the
Server Technology PRO3X/PRO4X series, the Legrand intelligent PDUs, and
all PDUs following the PDU2-MIB.
Supports rpower (whole-PDU and per-outlet), rinv and rvitals over SNMP
v1, v2c or v3, with credentials read from the pdu table).
Unlike the existing types, sensor units and decimal precision are read
from the MIB per sensor rather than hardcoded, so readings are correct
across models that report differing precision for the same sensor.
Outlet switching capability is probed at connect time, so metered-only
models report a single "unsupported" message instead of a per-outlet error.
rspconfig is not supported for genpdu; PDU linking and BCM2/PMC power
meters are out of scope.
Tested on Raritan PX4-5851-E7V2 (fw 4.2.10.5-50400, switched),
PX3-1901U-N1 and PX3-1901U-N1A6 (fw 4.0.20.5-49038, metered), and
PX2-1901U-N1A6 (fw 4.0.20.5-49038, metered).

When invoked with no node name, replaycons printed a terse "Please specify a
node name." Print the full usage statement instead, consistent with -h.
Also document, in the man page, that confluent log rotation renames older logs
and how to replay one by appending the date suffix seen in
/var/log/confluent/consoles/.

Recover several man-page clarifications that never merged from the lenovobuild
branch. All are documentation-only -- the man .pod sources with their
generated .rst, plus the networks-table description in Schema.pm:
* makedhcp / nodeset: note that UEFI boot directives are intentionally
omitted when nodetype.os names an OS without UEFI support, even for
'nodeset shell'.
* networks table dhcpserver: warn that it should be set only for service
node operation and that <xcatmaster> is not a valid value.
* noderange: clarify that the syntax is for xCAT.
* reventlog: note that unimplemented sensor types yield 'No Mappings Found'
and point to confluent's nodeeventlog facility.
* rcons: document confluent console auto-reconnect (a randomized 2-4 minute
retry, or 'ctrl-e o a' to force one); the original's stray backtick markup
is corrected.
