InfiniBand PKey Member Add

View as Markdown

Adds device interface GUIDs to an existing InfiniBand PKey partition on UFM and records the matching OverlayAssignment rows in Nautobot. Members can be specified by Nautobot interface or by raw IB GUID.

For details on adding members to a Partition Key, see the InfiniBand PKey Member Add user guide.

Members already attached to the PKey are not re-added. The workflow is additive — it never removes existing members.
