there appears to be some kind of mis-understanding regarding my question..
if i have 50 systems.. i'm trying to figure out how to automate the process
of installing the rpms across the 50 systems, so i don't have to do it
manually. i was also saying that the install process might also involve
creating of users/modifying config files...
if you're implying that i could 'modify' the rpm file, so that the invoking
of the rpm would perform these functions, then ok.. maybe.
i'm trying to find out if there's an automated/scripting method for this
kind of purpose. has anyone actually done this kind of automated action, and
if you have, cna you tell me how you did it...
make sure root keys are setup on your hosts so your 'master' box can ssh
into the others without a password.
then
#!/bin/bash
HOSTNAMES=`cat machinelist.txt`
for i in $HOSTNAMES
do
ssh $i 'rpm -i /path/to/some.rpm'
done
that will install the rpm on each host listed in machinelist.txt but of
course the rpm must be on the system first so either have it on a share or
#!/bin/bash
HOSTNAMES=`cat machinelist.txt`
for i in $HOSTNAMES
do
scp some.rpm $i:
ssh $i 'rpm -i /path/to/some.rpm'
done
would copy it over to the host and then install it
