Overall Status
automatic installation |
final tweaks to postinstall needed, but works well |
automatic maintenance |
sue, aaru,kernel works |
integration / features |
the hard ones are done, but many missing |
user/group environment |
profiles/hepix etc. need lots of work |
application software |
many open questions |
batch/grid |
no work done yet |
Xsession environment |
many open questions |
desktop |
no work done yet |
general
- main targets: cleanup, progress
user level compatibility with SL3 & Solaris is NOT
- for file distribution, prefer rpm over cfengine-copy-by-checksum
- clean up profiles! do NOT copy from SL3!
- no more hepixdm - replacement needed?
open questions
support only bash as the login shell?
- zsh has UTF-8 issues
- can we stop supporting tcsh as a login shell?
- much effort especially since we have to change the profiles
- not recommended anyway
replace NIS/LDAP with local files?
Why not finally rid ourselves of all NIS/LDAP/nsswicth(compat...) problems?
- distribute /etc/groups (like we already do with netgroups)
- create /etc/passwd from a distributed master file (taking into account who gets a shell on the system)
- this would also make it easy to change all users' shels to bash
done
- CKS3.pl works (same script, input, location etc. as SL3)
- SL3U.pl works (same script as SL3, but need /opt/products/perl/5.8.2 - link to SL3 products is ok)
- AI client works
- aaru scripts work (same as on SL3)
- remapgroups works and is installed
- ppm, prpm, products feature
- staged errata, aaru feature
- KUSL3.pl, kernel feature
- automount feature
- postinstallation
roadmap
- other priority1 features (sue) (?profiles?)
- Milestone: Regular test systems
- priority2 features
- Milestone: Ready for special purposes
- priority3 features
- Milestone: public preview
little todos
- check: remapgroups in default.ys ?
