Script to Automate MD3000 Software

Here is a sample script to fully configure a cluster node. Edit the variable PATH_TO_RESOURCE_CD_CONTENTS and run this on each cluster node:

#!/bin/bash
PATH_TO_RESOURCE_CD_CONTENTS=/net/management.my.lab/md3000_iso/contents

echo -Installing required software:
yum -y install kernel-devel gcc dkms mptlinux linuxrdac || exit 1
 
echo -Modifying linuxrdac configuration:
LINUXRDAC_VERSION=$(rpm -q linuxrdac | cut -d - -f 2)
sed -i  '/^DisableLUNRebalance=.*$/ s/=.*$/=3/' /usr/src/linuxrdac-${LINUXRDAC_VERSION}/mpp.conf || return 1
 
echo -Reinstalling linuxrdac:
dkms uninstall -m linuxrdac -v $LINUXRDAC_VERSION || exit 1 && \
dkms remove -m linuxrdac -v $LINUXRDAC_VERSION --all || exit 1 && \
dkms add -m linuxrdac -v $LINUXRDAC_VERSION || exit 1 && \
