Is there a way that i can do an unattended installation of an OXE?


The only thing i can find is combining expect (+ python) -> ttyS0 and mgr -nodico .

well,
installation is - mostly unattended :)
maybe you mean - 1st programming? like IP etc.. ?
and no - i don't know of any other option - then expect (sorry python is not my preferred choice) by it self and script to install on many vmwares.
There is no business need for that, but you could check - scripts for OTBE/BiCS - they have an OXE on vm - so they must do some - magic auto install :D

And yes - i know what you mean - some times you should have unattended option, just bring spare cpu to your box, click "customer no. 123", OXE goes install + reload the very latest backup, and ready to go!

I my company we try to use default values for entity's, call barring rules,voice guides. I don't like redundant work, so i script...
I found some great tools for copying the static voice guides to the CS -> curl.
I am glad that Alcatel has provided a tool like mgr -nodico wich is verry interesting, even with BASH scripting.
And then there is the expect tool.
Combining all these would increase the speed of the installation time and i have more time for troubleshooting.

I was just wondering i someone had any better idea, where can i find OTBE/BiCS scripts ?

What i don't find is a tool like mgr -nodico for lookups... I've read about cuser, i tried some SQL commands, like SHOW TABLES, SHOW DATABASES, but it returned nothing...
