Add checking for available XE client connection

dalgibbard opened this issue · comments

If xe-toolstack is dead, finding the UUID (and everything else) will fail.

Add detection of non-available xe client connectivity, and offer to restart xe-toolstack with:

xe-toolstack-restart

v1.4 Planned Change:

  • XE Client sanity checking

** Previously, hosts have had issues with their XE client - this should be identified at the start of a run (ideally prior to Host UUID identification is attempted).

** Prompt the user to restart the xe-toolstack if required.

** -a flag will auto-restart toolstack without prompt.

This is done; xe-toolstack-restart occurs without needing the -a flag as it's non-invasive.
Will close this after committing the changes in.
