Overview

Prerequisites:

KMMO： Depending on whether the necessary kernel modules become in-tree or not.
SR-IOV Operator.

Functionalities:

Easy to reset vDU Card-102X : Once the operator is installed, there will be 2 CRs underneath the operator. Users just need to modify the “reset CR”, then the specific vDU card can be reset, this can restore some extreme cases.
Easy to upgrade firmware of vDU Card-102X: To support more functionalities, the firmware of the vDU card need to be upgraded in the future. Users can get the right firmware version underneath this operator and fill it to the “upgrade CR”, the firmware of the specific cards will be upgraded to the right version.

Reset SynaXG vDU Card-102X: In a product environment, there would be several vDU Cards within a server. In some scenarios, users just want to reset one of the vDU Card. Users just need to modify the specific CR in the Operator GUI (on a brower), the right card will reboot. Users need not to login to the vDU Card directly, that will be very convenient.
Upgrade the firmware of SynaXG vDU Card-102X: Traditionally, if users want to upgrade the firmware of the vDU Card, there are so many steps and need some other configuration. But while using this Operator, users just need to specify the right firmware version and the target vDU Card in the Operator CR, the relevant cards will be upgraded to the expected firmware version.

Is KMMO always necessary?

No, In early release, because the necessary kernel modules are not in-tree, users need to install the necessary kernel modules via KMMO. Once the necessary kernel modules become in-tree, the KMMO is unnecessary.
