Installing Virtuoso with Chef

Are you aware of a Chef.io cookbook for deploying and configuring Virtuoso 6.xx?

    Hi Andrew,

    I agree with you about how Cadence releases are installed; I am super-familiar with the GUI flow.  

    I however need to do the download/install/configure process very often because I support multiple sites with different configurations of Virtuoso, Orcad, INCISIV, PVS; the options are different at each site.  The tool hierarchies point to different dependencies; e.g., different INCISIV trees and so on.  The GUIs don't really cut it any more because it has become a huge time sink for me.

    It's hard to think that Chef can be simpler than IScape, but it is hugely simpler and more repeatable.  

    I believe the opposite.  Chef would indeed add tremendous value to any organization.  And it is not an evaluation one should make in a snap.
