Run OS Discovery Toolset scripts using Docker Container

Linux Link: https://github.com/CiscoUcs/intersight-python/tree/master/os-discovery-tool

Pre-requisites

• Linux or MacOS host with Docker installed

• Intersight api key and SecretKey.txt.

• SSH-Keys for the root user. Use ssh-keygen to generate the keys. Sample keys provided in this repo for quick test.

  • id_rsa
  • id_rsa.pub

• Add the key to target hosts for password less authentication.
  Command: ssh-copy-id -i ~/path/to/key/id_rsa.pub root@target-ip

• The user should have password less sudo access. As we are using a root user for testing, you may not need it.
  If needed, modify sudoers file using "visudo" and add/modify wheels group with nopassword

`
#visudo

%wheel ALL=(ALL) NOPASSWD: ALL
`

Steps

• Clone this github repo

• Create hosts file in the local directory.

  • File with target linux host IP's.
  • Enter one IP per line
  • Filename: hosts

• Copy following files in the local directory:
  Filenames:

  • id_rsa
  • id_rsa.pub
  • SecretKey.txt

• Build docker image
  Command: docker build -t ostool .

• Run the docker container
  Command: docker run -it --rm -v /path/to/local/dir:/ostool ostool

`
% docker run -it --rm -v /Users/testuser/docker/ostool/test:/ostool ostool
