Category: Installation Group: None Status: Open Resolution: None Priority: 6 Submitted By: Terry Fleury (tfleury) Assigned to: David N. Lombard (dnl) Summary: RPM installation requires a lot of user interaction Initial Comment: When doing install_cluster, update-rpms finds RPMs that need to be installed and proceeds to PROMPT the user if he wants to install/update each package. For a lot of RPMs, this is very annoying. Should probably just install/update any necessary RPMs without any user interaction. Here's some output. Note that I had to type "y" to continue with the updating of RPMs and then "1" for each RPM.

Lombard (dnl) Date: 2004-05-10 12:31 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=27334 I'm trying to figure out what was done to generate the posted interaction. As I described, the interaction *only* occurs when update- rpms is called in a specific manner. AFAIK, and to the extent I've ever seen, such an invocation is not used by OSCAR. So, I am at a loss to explain why this occurred; it has certainly not happened to me in any of my runs, but I've only run on RH9. Is this repeatable? If so, can you run a diff in share/prereqs to confirm something isn't broken there? As for the last bit. Yikes! I wonder if SF went nuts? I don't think I posted the following, which is entirely unrelated to the current conversation. At any rate, please disregard: > Can you please send the following information to help us > determine what your problem may be: > > Number of nodes in Cluster > Number of cpus per node > Types of cpu (i.e. Pentium II 300 Mhz, Pentium V 1.6 Ghz) > Ammount of memory per machine > Type of hard drive (i.e. Western Digital IDE 40 GB) > Type of network card (i.e. Intel Ethernet Express 10/100) ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Terry Fleury (tfleury) Date: 2004-05-10 11:48 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=116599 > This is the expected behavior unless --check, --quiet, or > --execute are specificied on the command line. Then these command line options should be specified in the calling routine, whereever that may be. I did not add the "update-rpms" call to the oscar installer and so I don't know where the call is. > What are the circumstances of execution? I did "install_cluster eth0" on a box that had some older versions of the rpms already installed (as shown in the output from the original post). > What was the command line? The exact command line was "install_cluster eth0". (However, I DID state that I did "install_cluster" in the original post). > Can you please send the following information to help us > determine what your problem may be: > > Number of nodes in Cluster > Number of cpus per node > Types of cpu (i.e. Pentium II 300 Mhz, Pentium V 1.6 Ghz) > Ammount of memory per machine > Type of hard drive (i.e. Western Digital IDE 40 GB) > Type of network card (i.e. Intel Ethernet Express 10/100) I think this "followup" should have been posted to another bug. Please confirm. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: David N.
