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. Today's Topics: 1. Re: Aggregating filesystem performance (Oesterlin, Robert) (Brian Marshall) 2. Sample RHEL 7.2 config / anaconda scripts (Sobey, Richard A) 3.

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.

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.
