I am currently installing servers via the kickstart method without any problems. Traditionally we had different tree's for AS and ES to keep things simple. However now that we are starting to use Redhat Enterprise Server 5 it seems there is only one install media source. I am interested to install the Advanced platform so that we can use clustering and so on. The problem I am having is that its only a two socket server and when I register it using a key I don't get the option to specify Advanced instead of Server or whatever the new terminology is.

How do you guys specify for an install to be advanced vs standard?

The key includes what subrepositories on the install media you'll
be using.  IIRC the keys belonging to standard subscriptions will
not let you access the cluster and GFS repositories.

Of course you technically can always install the corresponding RPM's
from the DVD later on.


Yep. I think this is pretty much correct. The terms "advanced" and "standard" as referenced from http://www.redhat.com/rhel/server/compare/ are subscription features. Which are different from the channels you receive (clustering is a channel). I think the easiest way out of this one is to a support rep :) I think (https://www.redhat.com/apps/support/) has all the info you need.
