Generic Installation & ....
pippo
Installation
OS installation
Install SL5 using
SL5.X repository (CERN mirror) or one of the supported
OS (RHEL5 clones).
You may find information on official repositories at
Repositories for APT and YUM If you want to set up a local installation server please refer to
Mrepo Quick Guide
NOTE: Please check if
NTP
,
cron
and
logrotate
are installed, otherwise install them!
Check the FQDN hostname
Ensure that the hostnames of your machines are correctly set. Run the command:
hostname -f
It should print the fully qualified domain name (e.g.
prod-ce.mydomain.it
). Correct your network configuration if it prints only the hostname without the domain. If you are installing WN on private network the command must return the external FQDN for the CE and the SE (e.g.
prod-ce.mydomain.it
) and the internal FQDN for the WNs (e.g.
node001.myintdomain
).

Repository Specifications
With standard installation of SL5 it's possible that you have the EPEL repository enabled. Please disable it:
# mv /etc/yum.repos.d/epel.repo /etc/yum.repos.d/epel.repo.disabled
otherwise you'll get the following error:
Missing Dependency: libcares.so.0()(64bit) is needed by package glite-security-gss-2.0.0-3.sl5.x86_64 (glite-generic_sl5_x86_64_release)
because of the presence of newer version of c-ares (1.4.0-1.el5). The middleware needs the 1.3.0-4.sl5 !
Remeber to enabled the dag.repo :
With standard installation of SL5 it's possible that you have the DAG repository. Please check if it is enabled, if no please enabled it:
cat /etc/yum.repos.d/dag.repo
.... enabled=1 ....
Common repositories
Each profile needs a set of common repositories:
In order to have a working IGI service you have to download also the gLite repo files. In the table bellow you'll find the match from metapackages to profiles.
Profile-specific repositories
Furthermore each profile needs a set of repositories that contain the profile-related middleware. Look at the table below to know what specific repositories your profile needs:
Then update your host:
yum clean all
CAa installation:
Install CAs on ALL profiles:
yum install ca-policy-egi-core
Metapackage installation
Please consider that x86_64 WN profiles has to be installed using the “groupinstall” yum command as follows:
yum groupinstall <WN_profile>
where <WN_profile> could be one of: ig_WN, ig_WN_noafs, ig_WN_torque, ig_WN_torque_noafs, ig_WN_LSF, ig_WN_LSF_noafs or
yum groupinstall <UI_profile>
where <UI_profile> could be one of: ig_UI, ig_UI_noafs
If you are installing any othere profiles use:
yum install <metapackage>
Where
<metapackage>
is one of those reported on the table above (
Metapackages column).
