Role too complex #15

Open rhmk opened 4 years ago

rhmk commented 4 years ago

Need to discuss, if the role should be splitted in media-check, user-management, installation and license. Currently this role does all of it, but I think we shoul revisit this for sake of simplicity, i.e.

@rhmk One problem if we split the role into 3 or 4 separate roles is that we will create some complexity in other areas like different variable name prefixes, different README files, ..., although they all related to the SAP HANA installation. Regarding your first topic: For customers which have their HANA software already unpacked in NFS or CIFS shares, the current version of the role is probably sufficient as it can be configured without setting the SAP HANA bundle/zip file names and will then install from sap_hana_installdir. Regarding the second topic, is it already solved because the HANA user and group IDs can be set in the role? Regarding your last topic: In https://github.com/redhat-sap/sap-hana-deployment/issues/40, I am showing a simple solution for your last point.
