You can put almost anything you want that can be scripted in a kickstart
file. IIRC GI has a silent install option and cloning of GI is also
scriptable

Hey List-ers,

Without buying the Provisioning Pack, is it possible to create a
kickstart image of a box that has the grid infrastructure installed
and ready to configure?

The results from the manuals, (yeah, I looked there first) suggest you
can "partially" do this. You can do a binary only install, but you
can't really get the grid up and running without doing a grid home
clone.

I'm getting ready to upgrade/move a lot of rac db's to new clusters,
and I'm looking for ways to streamline the process. I would like to be
able to create a "golden image" kickstart box, so most of the
pre-requisites are already done when the sysadmins hand the boxes
over.

If anyone has experience doing this, I'd like to hear from you .

Thanks.
ZB
