Ugo,
Haven't been on the list that long, so haven't reviewed the 3 year old
history archives.
WRT the archives, bookmark this page. It's a google custom search
engine for kickstart list's archives:

Very useful.

I'm trying to use yum in the %post section of kickstart. With well-
written RPMs, this works great. However, I've come across the lovely HP
Insight Manager RPMS (hpasm, hprsm, etc) which seem to run "service
hpasm start" during the RPM postinstall (yuck). This wouldn't be too
bad if the daemons actually disassociated from the running terminal.
I notice yum install the group "yum groupinstall Insight-Manager" and
yum exits, but the rest of the kickstart %post doesn't run. If I look
at the hpasmd processes, they're tied to tty1 and owned by init :( If
I hit Alt-F2 in kickstart and chroot /mnt/sysimage, service hpasm stop,
the rest of the kickstart %post finishes. I also strace'd the /tmp/ks-
script process and it's stuck at waitpid(-1, )
I cannot wait on a vendor escalation at this time, so I see one method
of a workaround. Move the yum installs to a firstboot scenario instead
of %post. I'd really like to find another way around this.
Any ideas would be appreciated. Thanks.
Hi,
more than 3 years later, is there a solution to this? We have a bunch
of HP servers and I'm working to make the installs as automated as
possible and I'd like to end up with a system with all the HP packages
installed after anaconda finishes... How are you guys now proceeding?
I am kind of confused though, since current package versions don't seem
to try to start the services mentioned (since they require a
configuration step). That said, given some version information for
the query, there is likely a way to cause the agents not to auto-start,
upon package installation, through environment variables at the very least.
Also, since a yum groupinstall command was cited and the packages
aren't referenced that way, I suspect some other interactions may
also be in play with the original post.
Feel free to follow up with the versioning info, and I'll have a look
at it,
bryang
