AutoYaST2 for SUSE Linux Enterprise Server
AutoYaST2 is used to automatically install SUSE Linux Enterprise Server. Configuration information is stored in an XML configuration file called an AutoyaST profile. The installer reads the profile and installs the system based on the options given. AutoYaST only works for initial installations and cannot be used for upgrading.
An AutoyaST profile can be created using the Configuration Management System (CMS), editing an existing profile, or creating a profile manually. You can also select to create an AutoYaST profile when installing a system with SUSE Linux Enterprise Server. The resulting XML file can be used to create a cloned system or customized to create a different system.
An AutoyaST profile can be provided locally or over a network using NFS, HTTP, TFTP, or FTP.
For more information about using AutoYaST, see SUSE Linux Enterprise Server documentation at https://www.suse.com/products/server/technical-information/#Documentation.
