Hi I am after a solution where i can easily kickstart many, read hundreds, of boxes in a short time frame. Perhaps the way i install software is to actually re-kix the box with a new software baseline - that type of idea. I have looked at rocks and it looks good but it seems a little rigid in that i need to be able to determine certain things like hostname etc as in our env hostname represents box location etc. Are there any tools out there that do things as 'easily' as rocks but with more customization in them? Rocks seems to be based on beowulf type clusters where our setup is more an application type affair where communication it between the apps and not through the master box. thanks for any pointers
Check http://www.cs.inf.ethz.ch/CoPs/patagonia/ . Nettee or Dolly+ cloning tools seem to be time optimal. Some customization can probably be done through DHCP. -- Eduardo Grosclaude Universidad Nacional del Comahue Neuquen, Argentina _______________________________________________ CentOS mailing list CentOS@xxxxxxxxxx http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos
