Magellan discovers

Managing large-scale infrastructure requires automated hardware discovery and inventory tracking. OpenCHAMI’s Magellan is a tool designed to streamline Board Management Controller (BMC) discovery using the Redfish API. Whether you’re managing a single rack or an entire data center, Magellan helps automate system discovery, collect inventory data, and integrate seamlessly with OpenCHAMI’s System Management Database (SMD).

🔹 Key Features of Magellan#

✔️ Network Scanning – Discover active BMC nodes in a subnet automatically.
✔️ Inventory Collection – Retrieve detailed system information from each discovered node via Redfish.
✔️ Firmware Management – Identify and update firmware versions on discovered nodes.
✔️ SMD Integration – Load hardware inventory data directly into OpenCHAMI’s System Management Database (SMD).
✔️ JSON Export – Store inventory data in structured JSON format for easy parsing and external integration.
