Hi, I have a similar use case. I like the idea of installing via RPM, where the RPM is only a meta package which contains the install routine, but not the install media. The steps in the manifest are: 1) check if Oracle is not installed (ex: unless => "rpm -q oracle_database"; Facter fact) 2) if not installed, Mount[oracle_sources] 3) ensure Package[oracle_database] is installed 4a) in RPM: start runInstaller 4b) alternatively, you could place a script (containing the runInstaller command) with the software sources, and the RPM only calls "/sources/mount/oracle_install.cmd" What do you think? -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Puppet Users" group.
