This patch adds the ability to detect and manage GPU and Disk expansion
bays, and either add their internal components into the device
corresponding to the blade server, or into a dedicated device.
It takes advantage of the work made by @cyrinux on GPU bays management, and
applies the same principle to the external disk bays, but harmonize the
inventory management:
- If no argument is specified on the command line, the GPU cards, RAID
controllers and their attached disks are added in the blade device,
and the device corresponding to an expansion device is deleted.
- If the `--expansion-as-device` option is specified on the command
line, a dedicated device corresponding to the expansion bay is
created, and the GPUs, RAID card and attached disks are removed from
the blade device and added to the expansion device.
Add ability to create Virtual Machine in netbox with an auto-detecting feature (currently VirtualBox, Xen, Hyper-V, VMWare, GCP)
One caveat, I made the choice not to report the disk as Netbox model allow only one size but VM often have multiples.
Also, lot of code refactoring to be able to use create_or_update function style, fixing a lot of corner case
Several minor fixes:
- raid_array check should return an empty array, not NoneType
- not all systems will have IPv6 defined, handle this case
- Vendor Supermicro was incomplete.
