If you wish to have different partition layout for different servers then kick start may not the ideal choice. But if you prefer to for automatic installation using kickstart files then check out for cobbler.. Yes you could use cobbler with ilo as fence agents. This is ideal in such situations.

i want to create same partition in all the servers but i can not boot from pxe

Well, in that case, you could get the ks.cfg file (installation answer file) created with required partitions/size and other details, and then boot new system with an image and specify the answer file during boot up so that installation completes with user intervention.
