Hi Suresh, Dne 5.8.2016 v 07:22 Suresh K Hosamani napsal(a):
Is it ok to introduce second stage for OES configuration ? or do the OES configuration in first stage itself ?
If you really need the second stage then it is OK to add it and use it. But if you could configure OES from the first stage then it should be preferred. The advantages of the first stage config are: - the configuration is done in a single run, that's convenient for users and compatible with plain SLES - you do not need to boot the installed system, this makes preparing disk images easier - allows smaller system footprint, it allows installing a minimal system even without YaST included Disadvantages: - the inst-sys (or the y2update.tgz in your case) needs to contain all needed configuration tools and scripts, if you need to run some big programs to configure OES the inst-sys might become too big and might not work with minimal hardware (512MB RAM for SLES, I do not know the OES minimal requirements) - be careful when running external tools or writing to files, the target system is mounted at /mnt not at / (if you use YaST SCR it works transparently) - a bit more difficult development and debugging [1], developing and testing in inst-sys is more complex, a virtual machine helps a lot So in my opinion if you do not need to run big tools or something very tricky I'd prefer the first stage configuration.
