NAME

Parse::cfggen - Parse the output of cfggen utility.

VERSION

Version 0.01

SYNOPSIS

Parse::cfggen parses the output of cfggen utility to allow programmatic access to the RAID configuration information provided by the cfggen utility on LSI RAID cards.

use Parse::cfggen;

my $cfggen = Parse::cfggen->new();

Run the cfggen tool directly to query the hardware (requires root):

my $controllers = $cfggen->parse_config();

Parse a text file created already by running cfggen tool:

my $controllers = $cfggen->parse_config_file("foo.txt");

Read from a file descriptor already opened by the program:

my $controllers = $cfggen->parse_config_fh(\*STDIN);

SUBROUTINES/METHODS

new

Return an instance of the Parse::cfggen class that can be used to parse input in one of several ways.

parse_config

Attempt to run the cfggen utility, and parse the output. This command actually uses parse_config_fh() after opening a pipe to the relevant command.

The commands that are actually run are approximately:

    cfggen LIST cfggen 0 DISPLAY cfggen 1 DISPLAY cfggen ... DISPLAY

This command requires root access, and Parse::cfggen makes no attempt to use sudo or any other method to gain root access. It is recommended to call your script which uses this module as root.

The parse_config_fh() and parse_config_file() will expect output equivalent to that from the above command.

parse_config_file

Open and parse a file containing the output from cfggen.

parse_config_fh

Read from the file handle and parse it, returning a hash-of-hashes.
