Requirements

Tools:

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

Required Ruby Gems (required for text reports):

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

Optional Ruby Gems (required for PDF reports)

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

There is a very basic script to install gems

./methods/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
