Integrating HP Software Delivery Repository Packages with SUSE Linux Enterprise Server Installations

9
From this point, you can complete the remainder of the installation by following the instructions
provided by the
SUSE Linux Enterprise Server Deployment Guide or the SUSE Linux Enterprise Server
Installation Quick Start.
After you finish the installation and the target host system is booted, the system will contain the HP
Software Delivery Repository add-on packages that you selected (in the given example, this would be
the “hp-health” package).
Automating future installations to include add-ons
For any other future installations, you can automate the integration of the add-on products with the
installation. Review the contents of the autoinst.xml file created in the root home directory by your
manual installation (this assumes you selected the root home directory during the final steps of the
installation). In particular, you can provide portions of the <add-on> and <software> sections in
an answer file (typically, autoinst.xml) that you provide for an automated installation. As a result, the
HP Software Delivery Repository will be used to provide the packages specified in the <software>
section.
The following shows an example of a portion of the <add-on> and <software> sections that
might have been generated by the installation example provided in the “Procedure for integrating
SDR packages into the installation” section. The <add-on> section specifies the repository web
address and SDR. The <software> section specifies the Service Pack for ProLiant package name.
This data is shown in bold, red type in the following example.
