B<winstall> - Begin OS provision on a noderange

=head1 B<Synopsis>

B<winstall> [B<-o>|B<--osver>] [B<-p>|B<--profile>] [B<-a>|B<--arch>] [I<noderange>]

B<winstall> [B<-O>|B<--osimage>] [I<noderange>]

=head1 B<Description>

B<winstall> is a convenience tool that will change attributes as requested for operating system version, profile, and architecture, call B<nodeset> to modify the network boot configuration, call B<rsetboot> net to set the next boot over network (only support nodes
with "nodetype.mgt=ipmi", for other nodes, make sure the correct boot order has been set before B<winstall>), and B<rpower> to begin a boot cycle.

If [B<-O>|B<--osimage>] is specified or nodetype.provmethod=I<osimage> is set, provision the noderange with the osimage specified/configured, ignore the table change options if specified.

It  will then run wcons on the nodes.

=over 7

=item B<-h>|B<--help>

Display usage message. 

=item B<-v>|B<--version>

Display version. 

=item B<-o>|B<--osver>

Specifies which os version to provision.  If unspecified, the current node os setting is used. Will be ignored if [I<-O> | I<--osimage>] is specified or nodetype.provmethod=I<osimage>. 

=item B<-p>|B<--profile>

Specifies what profile should be used of the operating system.  If not specified the current node profile setting is used. Will be ignored if [B<-O>|B<--osimage>] is specified or nodetype.provmethod=I<osimage>.


=item B<-a>|B<--arch>

Specifies what architecture of the OS to provision.  Typically this is unneeded, but if provisioning between x86_64 and x86 frequently, this may be a useful flag. Will be ignored if [B<-O>|B<--osimage>] is specified or nodetype.provmethod=I<osimage>.

=item B<-O>|B<--osimage>

Specifies the osimage to provision.

=over 2

=item 1.
Provison nodes 1 through 20, using their current configuration.

 winstall node1-node20

=item 2.
Provision nodes 1 through 20, forcing rhels5.1 and compute profile.

 winstall node1-node20 -o rhels5.1 -p compute

=item 3.
Provision nodes 1 through 20 with the osimage rhels6.4-ppc64-netboot-compute.

 winstall node1-node20 -O rhels6.4-ppc64-netboot-compute
