This is an RPM dependency check, rather than checking anything about the
system state (such as the contents of /etc/redhat-release). In the past,
I've built a dummy rpm with no contents to work around these. I don't
think you can do a "--force" on a yum install - so you can't "yum
install gpfs.tct.server" unless you do something like that.
Would be great to get it removed from the rpm dependencies if possible.

Subject: [gpfsug-discuss] TCT and redhat-release-server
Date: Wed, Jan 4, 2017 2:58 PM
I’m getting stumped trying to test out TCT on a centos based
4.2.2.0 cluster and getting the following error when I’m trying to
install the gpfs.tct.server rpm.
rpm -ivh --force gpfs.tct.server-1.1.2_987.x86_64.rpm
error: Failed dependencies:
redhat-release-server >= 6.0 is needed by gpfs.tct.server-1-1.2.x86_64
I realize that Centos isn’t “officially” supported but this is
kind of lame to check for the redhat-release package instead of
whatever library (ssl) or some such that is installed instead.
Anyone able to do this or know a workaround? I did a quick search
on the wiki and in previous posts on this list and didn’t see
anything obvious.
