Module distributionby EMC (Initiate) |

EMC has asked for the wisdom of the Perl Monks concerning the following question:
Hello,
I'm a AIX Sysadmin who has been bugged for years that our 50 or so AIX 5.3 machines never really worked with CPAN and we've never had a plan to distribute modules consistently. The Perl that comes with the OS is compiled with IBM'c XLC compiler, which doesn't live on all machines. We are in the process of upgrading to AIX 6.1 and I'd like to solve this issue. I've installed IBM's C compiler and walked though getting CPAN::Bundle installed. I'd like to compile a few additional modules as well, and use this system an a 'build system.' Now I need to distribute these local modules to all of the other systems, hopefully in a nice and simple way. Any thoughts? I know folks with lots of servers don't simply log in and use CPAN for everytime they want to deploy a module to all of their servers.
I was thinking of just rsync'ing the following directories
Sorry if I'm over-thinking this and missing some obvious solution. I'm not a Perl expert, but I do like to use it.
