Roles | ||
===== | ||
|
||
It is possible to define a set of roles you want to distinguish at backend side. One node can own one | ||
role which it will announce via alfred inside the mesh. This will make it easier to differentiate | ||
nodes when parsing alfred data. E.g to count only **normal** nodes and not the gateways | ||
or servers (nodemap). A lot of things are possible. | ||
|
||
For this the section ``roles`` in ``site.conf`` is needed:: | ||
|
||
roles = { | ||
default = 'node', | ||
list = { | ||
node = 'Normal Node', | ||
test = 'Test Node', | ||
backbone = 'Backbone Node', | ||
service = 'Service Node', | ||
}, | ||
}, | ||
|
||
The value of ``default`` is the role every node will initially own. This value should be part of ``list`` as well. | ||
If you want node owners to change the defined roles via config-mode you can add the package | ||
``gluon-luci-node-role`` to your ``site.mk``. Then, you can select one of the defined roles from a dropdown list | ||
where the right-handed value is the one which is displayed and the left-handed key the one which is configured into | ||
the system. | ||
|
||
The role is saved in ``gluon-node-info.system.role``. To change the role using command line do:: | ||
|
||
uci set gluon-node-info.system.role="$ROLE" | ||
uci commit | ||
|
||
Please replace ``$ROLE`` by the role you want the node to own. |
