Hi Costel,
I've finaly built most packages for CentOS-5.9, unfortunately, not all packages
are able to build (openmpi, lam and maybe a few others). This is due to the
fact that oscar-6.1.0 was vuilt with some packages that only exist in trunk (no
tagged releases) and thus evolved in version that is now incompatible with
CentOS-5.9
But the main packages are here IMHO. Note htat they are untested though.
I'm currently uploadeing a new repos.
CentOS-5.9 is "almost dead" as it entered in the minimal support phase (only
critical bug fixes, no packages upgrade).
IMHO, I would go for CentOS-6.3 if possible, but I understand your position.
More over, currently systemimager svn is broken (but I should be able to find a
systemimager src.rpm that builds and works though).
Note that my build system has the epel (good) and rpmforge (bad) repositories
enabled. rpmforge sometimes upgrades system packages in version. If you
encounter some dependancies problem on the rpms I've built, please, try to
enable epel, retest and in last resort, enable rpmforge. It should install. (I
didn't say it should work as I didn't test)
I've seen some messages about md5 issues, are they on the rhel-5-x86_64 repos?
(or are you trying to install rhel-6-x86_64 packages on CentOS-5.9?) Installing
rhel-6-x86_64 packages on CentOS-5.9 will fail for most binary packages because
of bad dependancies regarding /usr/lib64/*.so.* versions that will differs.
I hope my message can be of any help to you.
PS: updated temp repo
http://olivier.lahaye1.free.fr/OSCAR/repos/6.1.0/rhel-5-x86_64/ (real repo
here: http://svn.oscar.openclustergroup.org/repos/6.1.0/rhel-5-x86_64/)
PPS: still need to build a systemimager rpms suite.....
Best regards.

Objet : [Oscar-users] Cent OS 5.9 or CentOS 6
Hello,
I received the digest from yesterday and I noticed that I missed some of your
messages. Sorry for this.
After I read all new messages I am still unsure of what to do next. I believe I
need to explain a little bit my current situation.
I already installed a new master node with Cent OS 5.9 in production and
already did some work (built MPICH, my application, configured, tested with
users).
Using another version means at least to do again all this work.
At the time we took the decision to go for CentOS 5.9 , the OSCAR 6.1 was not
yet built for CentOS 6 or it was just successfully built. OSCAR for CentOS 5
was already there for years and as we are somehow afraid to use unstable
versions in production, I decided to go for this version.
Now I have the choice to either:
1. Upgrade my master to CentOS 6, meaning doing again all the work
already done.
2. Use the last version built by Olivier for CentOS 5 but I understand
there could be some missing packages (knowing that what I used with my previous
version was: SIS, SGE, Ganglia, C3, switcher .. I built MPICH myself)
3. Hopefully have access to the stable version for CentOS 5 if the
repository at http://bison.csm.ornl.gov/repos/rhel-5-x86_64 is successfully
recovered
To be honest I prefer the 3rd solution for several reasons:
-Not to do all the work done onto the new master
-To benefit from my experience with RedHat 5.7 and OSCAR 6.1.1 used last time
-To benefit from a stable version used for years
I saw Olivier you already asked for the repository for CentOS 5 x86_64 to be
restored. Do you believe there is a chance to have it back online during the
next 2-3 days? Do you have a backup of that repository?
Kind Regards,
Costel SEITAN
