Engelgardt23 4e727b669d vrcx 0.2.0-dev: BMC + SDS parallel collector
Initial commit of vrcx (Vegman Remote Collect, extended) — the BMC-only
bmccollect renamed and extended with a parallel SDS-host log branch.

- dev/prod/old repo layout
- per-host bmc/ + os/ subdirs, archives/dump_<ip>.tar.gz, outer session tarball
- SdsSession (paramiko, sudo via -S), OS_COMMAND_TABLE (lsiget, storcli, smartctl, journal, dmidecode, etc.)
- SDS IP discovery via Redfish EthernetInterfaces -> /24 ping-sweep -> arp -a
- UI shows BMC|OS dual progress per host
- CI/pyinstaller paths updated for dev/

bmccollect

Latest release License: MIT

A portable collector of YADRO BMC diagnostic logs. Re-implementation of the original VRC tool, packaged as a maintainable Python project — same output structure expected by YADRO support, but readable source, modular layout, CI-built releases.

Made by engelgardt.


Download

Grab the latest release: releases page. The asset is bmccollect-portable-vX.Y.Z.zip.

Run

  1. Unzip anywhere.
  2. Double-click bmccollect.exe.
  3. Paste one or more BMC IPs (whitespace / comma / newline separated). End input with an empty line.
  4. Enter username (default admin) and password.
  5. Watch the live progress table while the tool collects each BMC in parallel.
  6. When it's done you get a single out/<DDMMYYYY_HHMMSS>/<stamp>.tar.gz ready to send to support.

Ctrl+C aborts. The output folder is kept regardless — you can pack it manually if needed.

What it collects

For each BMC: inventory.json, lsinventory.json, sensors.log, sellog.log, bmc-state.txt, host-state.txt, bmc-net-cfg.log, cpuinfo, meminfo, osrelease, disk-usage.log, failed-services.log, top.log, bmc-journal_full_date.log, journals for obmc-console and obmc-yadro-vrm-setter, a Redfish /redfish/v1/Systems dump, and others — see commands.py for the full command table. Adding a new artefact is one line in that table.

Compatibility

  • Output structure mirrors VRC v1.1b — YADRO support flow is unchanged.
  • Tested against vegman-sx20 BMC firmware.
  • Windows 10 / 11 host (the only place this tool runs).

Build from source

python -m pip install rich paramiko pyinstaller
python -m PyInstaller --onefile --console --name bmccollect --paths src bmccollect-launcher.py
