Overview
General
NAME
lstree - Display the tree of service node hierarchy, hardware hierarchy, or VM hierarchy.
SYNOPSIS
lstree [-h | --help]
lstree [-s | --servicenode] [-H | --hardwaremgmt] [-v | --virtualmachine] [noderange]
DESCRIPTION
The lstree command can display the tree of service node hierarchy for the xCAT nodes which have service node defined
or which are service nodes, display the tree of hardware hierarchy only for the physical objects, display the tree of
VM hierarchy for the xCAT nodes which are virtual machines or which are the hosts of virtual machines. If a noderange
is specified, only show the part of the hierarchy that involves those nodes. For ZVM, we only support to disply VM
hierarchy. By default, lstree will show both the hardware hierarchy and the VM hierarchy for all the nodes.
OPTIONS
-h|--help
Display usage message.
-s|-- servicenode
Show the tree of service node hierarchy.
-H|--hardwaremgmt
Show the tree of hardware hierarchy.
-v|--virtualmachine
Show the tree of VM hierarchy.
nodegrange
noderange A set of comma delimited node names and/or group names. See the "noderange" man page for details on additional
supported formats.
RETURN VALUE
0 The command completed successfully.
1 An error has occurred.
EXAMPLES
1. To display the tree of service node hierarchy for all the

Implementation
- For the service node hierarchy, use noderes. servicenode to build a hash for the mapping between sn and cn.
- For the hardware management hierarchy, use nodehm.mgt to determine the hardware mgmt type, such as hmc, fsp, blade, etc; then build the different hash to store the different hardware relationship, for example, if the nodehm.mgt is hmc, the hash structure will be hmc->frame(if available)->CEC->LPARID->cn; if the nodehm.mgt is fsp, the hash structure will be frame->CEC->LPARID->cn; if the nodehm.mgt is blade, mm->bladeid->cn. Use DBobjutils->getchildren to get the BPAs/FSPs for Frame/CEC.
- For the VM hierarchy, use vm.host to build a hash for the mapping between vm and its host.
Since xcat has already supported lstree for zvm, so we need to expand this support for system p and x.
- create a new plugin tree.pm to handle the lstree command, tree.pm will handle all the cases for -s, -H, -v and -h, and not call xCAT::Utils->runxcmd to dispatch the request to each plugins.
- for -H flag, we only list the physical hardware tree, the supported input <noderange> is physical objects. for example, it does not support LPAR or VM as input. tree.pm will call the subroutines provided by each plugin to get the hwtree hash, then output it in tree.pm.
- for -v flag, we only list the vm tree - vmhosts
