idle¶

Pipeline variant: non-destructive inventory and classification only

Runs the discover phase against a machine that already has a running operating system, then finishes. The hardware, os, and app phases are skipped, so the machine is never reflashed, repartitioned, or reinstalled.

The discover phase runs universal-discover-idle in place of the default universal-discover-core. universal-discover-idle collects inventory with gohai, requires no vendor tools, and does not enforce the sledgehammer BootEnv, so the machine is not rebooted into a discovery ramdisk.

Use this Pipeline to bring existing machines under management, to re-inventory and re-classify machines already in service, or as the landing Pipeline for machines that must stay in their current state.

The discover phase's start and complete workflows still run, so the classification, validation, callback, and flexiflow hooks for the phase apply as they do in any other Pipeline.
