Import Infrastructure

Importing infrastructure is the recommended approach for small to medium deployments. The Super Admin uploads a CSV file containing server details, and Bridge registers those resources under management.

note

For large deployments with many switches and servers, use Discovery instead.

Prerequisites​

Before importing, ensure the following:

  • CSV must contain both Bridge node details and server details
  • Both the Bridge node and GPU servers must have Password Authentication enabled
  • Password authentication users must be able to run sudo commands

CSV File Requirements​

Download the sample CSV template and update it with your infrastructure details.

note

The CSV file is for reference only — all details in the template are dummy values. Update it with your actual infrastructure information.

CSV Column Requirements​

  1. Use eth0/ens* private IP for the InternalIp and InbandIp columns
  2. Update InBandMAC for all nodes, including the Bridge node (amcop)
  3. Ensure Hostname and Name fields match for every row

Step 4: Verify Import​

After import completes, the Compute tab shows imported servers in Not Started state.

Viewing imported NFS server in the Storage tab

If the Admin imports the NFS server as well, after the import completes you can view the imported NFS server and its details in the Storage tab.
