PARSEC

Parse, Analyse, and Report on Solaris Explorer Configuration/Content

Introduction

A ruby script to parse a Sun Oracle Solaris explorer file and extract information. There is some reporting capability being built into the script.

Some of the features include:

  • Map IO paths and disk
  • Determine part numbers where possible
  • Report on firmware versions
    • Report if newer version is available
  • Security checks for defaults and kernel parameters
  • Mask customer information, WWNs, etc
  • Output in the following formats:
    • Plain console text which can be piped into other applications
    • Text table console output
    • HTML output
    • Wiki output
  • A Sinatra based webserver to serve up configs

Usage

The default output has changed to pipe (white space delimited plain text).

To get the old style terminal tables, use the table output format type, e.g.:

$ ./parsec.rb --server=hostname --report=all --format=table

To get the html formated output use the html output format type, e.g.:

$ ./parsec.rb --server=hostname --report=all --format=html

To get pdf output, use the pdf format output type, e.g.:

$ ./parsec.rb --server=hostname --report=all --format=pdf

To run the Sinatra based webserver:

$ ./webserver

This will start up a webserver on port 9494

Authentication can be enable by setting the enable_auth flag in webserver.rb:

enable_auth = true

Certificates and keys are stored in the ssl directory:

$ ls -l ssl
total 16
-rw-r--r--  1 spindler  staff  1383  9 Aug 23:27 cert.crt
-rw-r--r--  1 spindler  staff   891  9 Aug 23:27 pkey.pem

If they don't exist the script will try to create them on startup.

Otherwise use the openssl command:

$ cd ssl
$ openssl req -x509 -nodes -days 365 -newkey rsa:1024 -keyout pkey.pem -out cert.crt

The server looks for users in a .htpasswd file in the views directory, eg:

$ cat ./views/.htpasswd 
spindler:$2y$05$0Ntm14Sl3Ix.qUSd537V8eUuhM6nJiqSM9mB18Pp5bnbg0ZhtxQAq

The password algorithm is bcrypt.

Password entries can be created using htpasswd, eg:

$ htpasswd -n -b -B spindler test >> ./views/.htpasswd 

If you want photos to be displayed, you'll need the Sun System Pictures archive.

To enable photos, clone the archive to a location of your choice and symlink it to the photos directory in the root directory of parsec, e.g.:

$ cd /export
$ git clone https://github.com/lateralblast/ssp.git
$ cd /export/parsec
$ ln -s /export/ssp/images ./photos

Requirements

Tools:

  • Uses pigz if available
  • S tar required for Operating Systems other than Solaris
  • ImageMagick required for image processing for PDF reports
  • libiconv

Required Ruby Gems (required for text reports):

  • rubygems
  • fileutils
  • getopt/std
  • pathname
  • hex_string
  • terminal-table
  • pathname
  • etc
  • unpack
  • enumerator
  • iconv

Optional Ruby Gems (required for PDF reports)

  • prawn
  • prawn/table
  • fastimage
  • nokogiri
  • rmagick

Aditional gems required for webserver:

  • erb
  • sinatra

There is a very basic script to install gems

./utils/generic/install_gems.sh

A base set of firmware information is provided. This information is created using oort. In order to keep this information up to date, a MOS (My Oracle Support) account is required.

In order to work, parsec requires three directories:

  • methods
    • where the parsec modules are located
    • cloning parsec from git will get these
  • information
    • where firmware and other information is location
    • parsec comes with some base information which can be updated using the oort script
    • see the Getting started with Parsec wiki
  • firmware (under development)
    • the actual firmware
    • required for some machines to obtain further information
    • can be the repository generated from the oort script
    • see the Getting started with Parsec wiki
