Node Tuning Helper Scripts

Detailed instructions for invoking the helper utilities that back /node-tuning commands:

• generate_tuned_profile.py renders Tuned manifests (tuned.openshift.io/v1).
• analyze_node_tuning.py inspects live nodes or sosreports for tuning gaps.

When to Use These Scripts

• Translate structured command inputs into Tuned manifests for the Node Tuning Operator.
• Iterate on generated YAML outside the assistant or integrate the generator into automation.
• Analyze CPU isolation, IRQ affinity, huge pages, sysctl values, and networking counters from live clusters or archived sosreports.

Prerequisites

• Python 3.8 or newer (python3 --version).
• Repository checkout so the scripts under plugins/node-tuning/skills/scripts/ are accessible.
• Optional: oc CLI when validating or applying manifests.
• Optional: Extracted sosreport directory when running the analysis script offline.
• Optional (remote analysis): oc CLI access plus a valid KUBECONFIG when capturing /proc//sys or sosreport via oc debug node/<name>. The sosreport workflow pulls the registry.redhat.io/rhel9/support-tools image (override with --toolbox-image or TOOLBOX_IMAGE) and requires registry access. HTTP(S) proxy env vars from the host are forwarded automatically when present, but using a proxy is optional.
