I need to drive an interactive installation of execution daemon of N1GE (Sun Grid Engine) as part of Kickstart installation. I have 20 new machines here waiting to be installed (followed by another 20), to become execution nodes of an HPC cluster. The master/head node is already installed and has N1GE master scheduler up and running, waiting for execution nodes to join.
The installation of the exec daemon is not RPM based but bash-powered wizard style of thing. I've prepared an expect script that supplies all the answers (just a bunch of consecutive expect-send statements) to the wizard and it works great when I run it by hand on freshly installed exec node, but doesn't work when run as part of %POST. I guess something is not right in pre-expect part of my %POST workflow. Just wanted to verify that expect scripts work in general for other people in their %POST sections.
