After creating the catalog, it downloads, parses, and the status is displayed on the home page of the
repository profile.
Successfully parsed repository profiles are available during the cluster profile creation and during the
firmware update.
4 Create Cluster Profile
OMIVV allows you to maintain single image that comprises of firmware and driver repositories. You can maintain
the same firmware and driver versions across the cluster.
This can be achieved by creating cluster profile in OMIVV and associating the cluster profile with firmware
repository and/or driver repository.
The cluster profile will not refresh itself when the source repository changes. To identify the updated profiles
that are associated with cluster profile, go to the Cluster Profiles page. Yellow warning icon will be displayed
next to the updated cluster profile.
To update the cluster profile with the latest available driver or firmware, select the impacted cluster profile, click
Update Profiles on the Cluster Profile page. For more information, see OMIVV 5.2 User’s guide
.
5 Drift view for the cluster
When Cluster profile is created and associated to specific cluster, OMIVV shows the deviation of each hosts in
that cluster to the firmware and driver repository versions present in the cluster profile. In this way, you can view
the holistic view of hosts and get the drift of both firmware and driver versions of host compared to the versions
present in cluster profile.
When a new host is added to a cluster after the cluster profile is created (and added to host credential profile
in OMIVV), the host automatically gets added to the list of hosts for the drift detection process during the next
scheduled run of the drift detection job. For more information, see OMIVV 5.2 User’s guide
