Kick’n It
So I’m doing my first RHEL kickstart. I’m quite impressed. I’ve known about it for sometime (who doesn’t) but never really used RHEL and therefore didn’t have a reason to use it. But now that I’m “the linux guy”, and RHEL is an obvious choice for enterprise environments, I standardized on RHEL as the distro of choice for us. So why not kickstart everything?
Damn, its done…
So that went really, really quick! This is really just my trial install: a generic base install that I can build upon in a modular framework. The ultimate goal is an autonomous install where we define a system’s config in a database for use with cfengine/puppet and the system automatically builds itself. But I gauge that will be sometime out in the future.
For now, I’m just nailing down our base RHEL install plus local rpms for OV agents, HP stuff and EMC stuff.
