Deploying More Than 100 Workstations - Novell LINUX ENTERPRISE SERVER 10 SP2 - INSTALLATION AND ADMINISTRATION Installation Manual

Details Section 5.2, "Rule-Based Autoinstallation" (page 97)
2.3 Deploying More than 100
Workstations
Most of the considerations brought up for medium installation scenarios in Section 2.1,
"Deploying up to 10 Workstations" (page 7) still hold true for large scale deployments.
However, with a growing number of installation targets, the benefits of a fully automated
installation method outweigh its disadvantages.
It pays off to invest a considerable amount of time to create a sophisticated rule and
class framework in AutoYaST to match the requirements of a huge deployment site.
Not having to touch each target separately can save you a tremendous amount of time
depending on the scope of your installation project.
