Re: [yast-devel] Add-on installation on SLES12 SP2

Hi Ladislav, Sorry instead of inst_oes_congratulate, I had written as inst_oes_postconfig. Is it ok to introduce second stage for OES configuration ? or do the OES configuration in first stage itself ? Regards, Suresh

Hi,

OES is an add-on installation on SLES and OES configuration happens in second stage of installation.

On SLES12, I added the OES modules under stage continue,mode installation. So once SLES configuration is done (after finish module) server boots and OES configuration starts, after executing inst_oes_postconfig module, server again reboots.

In other words, the "inst_oes_congratulate" step is skipped? Then check what the "inst_oes_postconfig" client returns (see the y2log). Maybe it aborts the workflow... Or another idea, the "inst_oes_congratulate" step starts but immediately returns due to some bug. Again, check the y2log.

I just wanted to validate that, is the right approach to follow or do I need to anything differently or do I need to call any other modules after OES configuration is done.

The XML definition looks OK to me and should work. You do not need to call any other YaST modules if you do not need them. Just keep in mind that in SLE12 we dropped the second stage completely in a standard installation and it is used only in AutoYaST mode when needed. (The installation system does not include all YaST modules, some AutoYaST modules need to be started from the installed system later.) That means the second stage might be potentially a bit buggy as we do not use it anymore. We might not notice the regressions easily...
