cool! thanks for the quick response. i'll try it in a few. so if previously installed i don't need to specify a package and it should detect based on the inventory. if it is a new rpm i have to specify a name. in a widely distributed net with hundreds of nodes is there another way to do an install of a new rpm without remoting to each?
Try:
yum grouplist {to find out what groups are available}
yum groupinstall whatevergroup {to install it}
If those groups aren't to your liking you can:
- make a new repo creating the groups and group contents you like
or
- make an rpm/s that simply pulls in other rpms, see attached what I
use. You need the rpm build tools to build the rpm into installable
binary rpms. You can createrepo to make a yum installable repo out of
the rpms you create.
