Monitoring kickstart install status

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hi All,

I am hoping to run a python script in the background during %pre to monitor the kickstart install status.  My script will periodically send status to a server somewhere within LAN and report the current installation status.

Running a python script in %pre and sending status to a remote server is the easy part but I am not sure what to monitor to retrieve the kickstart install status.

One thought I have is to monitor the /mnt/sysimage/root/install.log and compare the number of packages installed and the number of packages specified in the ks.cfg and get a rough estimate of the kickstart install status.

I am not sure if this is a correct way to do or there's a better to do so.

Please let me know if you've any suggestion or thought.

Thanks!

- David
