Browsing Releases in: UMD-4

This category lists all releases included in UMD-4.
There are two ways to configure the necessary repositories for UMD-4. Instructions on how to do that per Operating System are given below.

CentOS 7

• RPM based configuration

  On each production machine that is to be configured for using the UMD repositories, site administrators must follow the installation instructions given below:

  1. Remove all UMD and EPEL related configuration files that may exist from /etc/yum.repos.d so that there is no misconfigured epel or UMD repositories.
     Note be careful not to remove the OS or other necessary repo configuration files
     execute rm /etc/yum.repos.d/UMD-* /etc/yum.repos.d/epel-*
  2. Install the appropriate EPEL repository for you distribution from the fedora project
     e.g. if you’re using Centos 7, install EPEL by executing
     yum install epel-release
  3. Install yum-priorities RPM
     execute yum install yum-priorities
  4. Install Centos 7 umd-release RPM, that adds all missing repositories that are needed for the installation of UMD products and configures yum priorities
     e.g. execute yum install http://repository.egi.eu/sw/production/umd/4/centos7/x86_64/updates/umd-release-4.1.3-1.el7.centos.noarch.rpm
  5. perform yum update to get the latest list of rpms and the corresponding keys.
  6. In case you are updating from a previous UMD installation make sure you have first imported the UMD signature
     by executing rpm –import http://repository.egi.eu/sw/production/umd/UMD-RPM-PGP-KEY otherwise yum will exit with errors regarding the UMD GPG keys.

• Manual Configuration

  The Production sites will need to configure the following repositories

  • The Main OS Repository
  • EPEL repository: follow the installation notes available at EPEL
  • EGI Trust Anchor Repository: use the .repo files at EGI CAs repository
  • UMD Production Repository: use the .repo files at UMD repository

  It is required to set the UMD repository with the highest priority in order to avoid possible discrepancies with EPEL.
  In order to do this, you will need to install yum-priorities package and verify that the .repo file for UMD has

  protect=1
  priority=1
  

  Also make sure that your /etc/yum/pluginconf.d/priorities.conf file has

  [main]
  enabled = 1
  check_obsoletes = 1
  

In case you are installing the ARC products make sure you have first imported the NORDUGRID signature by executing rpm -import http://download.nordugrid.org/RPM-GPG-KEY-nordugrid otherwise yum will exit with errors regarding the ARC GPG keys.
