<div class="WordSection1">
<p class="MsoNormal">I agree with what I think is the purpose of the demo as described in the outline, which is to show:<o:p></o:p></p>
<ol style="margin-top:0in" start="1" type="a">
<li class="MsoListParagraph" style="margin-left:.25in;mso-list:l0 level1 lfo1">Sunfish aggregation of multiple Agent inventories (A CXL fabric Agent, and a Swordfish NVMe JBOD? Agent)<o:p></o:p></li><li class="MsoListParagraph" style="margin-left:.25in;mso-list:l0 level1 lfo1">The ability to query Sunfish to locate composable resources (systems, storage and CXL FAM)<o:p></o:p></li><li class="MsoListParagraph" style="margin-left:.25in;mso-list:l0 level1 lfo1">The ability to allocate MemoryChunks and storage volumes from the composable resources using Sunfish API (Redfish / Swordfish calls)<o:p></o:p></li><li class="MsoListParagraph" style="margin-left:.25in;mso-list:l0 level1 lfo1">The ability to bind hosts (systems) to MemoryChunks and storage volumes via Redfish Connections<o:p></o:p></li></ol>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">To do the above, we need to break out Step 3 into two steps, as I don’t propose we start the demo with predefined MemoryChunks and Volumes:<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"> 3.1) Retrieve the MemoryDomains from the CXL fabric tree, create one or two MemoryChunks out of these ‘memory pools’, and do the same with a storage pool<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"> 3.2) Retrieve the list of Systems from the CXL fabric tree, create a connection between one and a new MemoryChunk or storage volume<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">If we wish to demonstrate binding <b>a single host</b> to a new storage volume
<b>and</b> to a MemoryChunk, we are missing one more ‘ability’ in the Sunfish reference code: We need the ability for Sunfish to notice that systems of the NVMeoF fabric and systems of the CXL fabric are the SAME systems.
<b>I propose we hide the need to resolve the multiple names for the same host by just making the names the same from both Agents in the mockups</b>. (If anyone asks, we just acknowledge that this reconciliation of multiple IDs is functionality which is required,
but not ready for demonstration yet.)<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">So, we are missing the discovery of resource pools and the creation of explicit sub-sets of them in step 3.1 and the accompanying functionality in the code stacks.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">We also do not have the correct mockups for the two Agents, which is another item that needs to be added to the ‘missing’ list. Everything else looks good.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">I suggest we work through the demo topology this Friday, and then create specific mockups that would be the proper models for the demo resources. Once we have the demo topology fixed, we can talk through how the GUI can most easily display
this inventory and enable the GUI user to manipulate the components to demo the capabilities we want to show off.<o:p></o:p></p>
