Description
If network interfaces are removed on a node (like, on a docker server), they don't disappear from the Rudder server - resulting in an ever growing list of network interface in Rudder for every nodes
- Related to Bug #11912: VM list in a host doesn't match inventory list added
A workaround can be to delete all network interfaces with following script, then regenerating an inventory
ldapsearch -o ldif-wrap=no -v -h localhost -p 1389 -x -D "cn=Manager,cn=rudder-configuration" -w secret -b "nodeId=XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX,ou=Nodes,ou=Accepted Inventories,ou=Inventories,cn=rudder-configuration" -s one "(objectClass=networkInterfaceLogicalElement)" 1.1 | grep -e "^dn*" | sed -e "s/dn: //" > dn_to_delete.txt
ldapdelete -h localhost -p 1389 -D "cn=manager,cn=rudder-configuration" -w 'secret' -c -f dn_to_delete.txt

So, it happens on any sub-ldap entries of node (i.e mountPoint or networkInterface) or machine (bios, cpu, controllers, etc). So it is critical, because obviously it can impact dyn-group consistancy.
