=head1 Name
B<rinstall> - Begin OS provision on a noderange
=head1 B<Synopsis>
B<rinstall> [B<-O>|B<--osimage>] [B<-c>|B<--console>] [I<noderange>]
=head1 B<Description>
B<rinstall> is a convenience command that will change tables 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<rinstall>), and B<rpower> to begin a boot cycle.
If [B<-O>|B<--osimage>] is specified or nodetype.provmethod=B<osimage> is set, provision the noderange with the osimage specified/configured, ignore the table change options if specified.
If -c is specified, it will then run rcons on the node. This is allowed only if one node in the noderange. If need consoles on multiple nodes , see L<winstall(8)|winstall.8>.
