[gpfsug-discuss] gpfsug-discuss Sample RHEL 7.2 config Spectrum Scale install toolkit

[Michael L Taylor]

Hi Richard,
The Knowledge Center should help guide you to prepare a RHEL7 node for
installation with the /usr/lpp/mmfs/4.2.0.x/installer/spectrumscale install
toolkit being a good way to install CES and all of its prerequisites:
http://www.ibm.com/support/knowledgecenter/STXKQY_4.2.0/com.ibm.spectrum.scale.v4r2.ins.doc/bl1ins_loosein.htm

For a high level quick overview of the install toolkit:
https://www.ibm.com/developerworks/community/wikis/home?lang=en#!/wiki/General%20Parallel%20File%20System%20%28GPFS%29/page/Protocols%20Quick%20Overview%20for%20IBM%20Spectrum%20Scale

As mentioned, RHEL7.2 will be supported with CES with the 4.2.1 release due
out shortly.... RHEL7.1 on 4.2 will work.

The spectrumscale-protocols rpm (I think that was it) should include all
the os dependencies you need for the various ss bits.

If you were adding the ss rpms by hand, then there are packages you need to
include. Unfortunately the protocols rpm adds all the protocols whether you
want them or not from what I remember.

Hi all

Where can I find documentation on how to prepare RHEL 7.2 for an
installation of SS 4.2 which will be a CES server? Is a ?minimal? install
(yes, install using the GUI, don?t shoot me) sufficient or should I choose
a different canned option.

Thanks

Richard
PS I tried looking in the FAQ
http://www.ibm.com/support/knowledgecenter/STXKQY/gpfsclustersfaq.html but
I couldn?t find anything specific to this.
