Yes, yum is installed: [root@xcat-comp08 ~]# rpm -qa | grep -i yum yum-plugin-fastestmirror-1.1.31-53.el7.noarch yum-metadata-parser-1.1.4-10.el7.x86_64 yum-3.4.3-167.el7.centos.noarch
When trying to install manually on the compute node, the yum command fails due to trying to fetch the CentOS internet repositories while there is no internet access on the compute node: [root@xcat-comp08 ~]# yum repolist Loaded plugins: fastestmirror Loading mirror speeds from cached hostfile Could not retrieve mirrorlist http://mirrorlist.centos.org/?release=7&arch=x86_64&repo=os&infra=stock error was 14: curl#7 - "Failed to connect to 2604:1380:1001:6c00::1: Network is unreachable" Loading mirror speeds from cached hostfile Loading mirror speeds from cached hostfile Loading mirror speeds from cached hostfile Loading mirror speeds from cached hostfile Loading mirror speeds from cached hostfile repo id repo name status base/7/x86_64 CentOS-7 - Base 0 extras/7/x86_64 CentOS-7 - Extras 0 updates/7/x86_64 CentOS-7 - Updates 0 xCAT-centos7.8-path0 xCAT-centos7.8-path0 0 xcat-otherpkgs0 xcat-otherpkgs0 0 repolist: 0 [root@xcat-comp08 ~]# yum install vim -y Loaded plugins: fastestmirror Loading mirror speeds from cached hostfile Could not retrieve mirrorlist http://mirrorlist.centos.org/?release=7&arch=x86_64&repo=os&infra=stock error was 14: curl#7 - "Failed to connect to 2604:1380:2001:d00::3: Network is unreachable" One of the configured repositories failed (Unknown), and yum doesn't have enough cached data to continue. At this point the only safe thing yum can do is fail. There are a few ways to work "fix" this: 1. Contact the upstream for the repository and get them to fix the problem. 2. Reconfigure the baseurl/etc. for the repository, to point to a working upstream. This is most often useful if you are using a newer distribution release than is supported by the repository (and the packages for the previous distribution release still work). 3. Run the command with the repository temporarily disabled yum --disablerepo=<repoid> ... 4. Disable the repository permanently, so yum won't use it by default. Yum will then just ignore the repository until you permanently enable it again or use --enablerepo for temporary usage: yum-config-manager --disable <repoid> or subscription-manager repos --disable=<repoid> 5. Configure the failing repository to be skipped, if it is unavailable. Note that yum will try to contact the repo. when it runs most commands, so will have to try and fail each time (and thus. yum will be be much slower). If it is a very temporary problem though, this is often a nice compromise: yum-config-manager --save --setopt=<repoid>.skip_if_unavailable=true Cannot find a valid baseurl for repo: base/7/x86_64 Also it is strange that "yum repolist" show the status of the xCAT repos to be "enabled: 0" although in the .repo files it is "enabled=1" [root@xcat-comp08 ~]# cat /etc/yum.repos.d/xCAT-otherpkgs0.repo [xcat-otherpkgs0] name=xcat-otherpkgs0 baseurl=http://192.168.14.231:80/install/post/otherpkgs/centos7.8/x86_64/ enabled=1 gpgcheck=0 skip_if_unavailable=True [root@xcat-comp08 ~]# cat /etc/yum.repos.d/xCAT-centos7.8-path0.repo [xCAT-centos7.8-path0] name=xCAT-centos7.8-path0 baseurl=http://192.168.14.231:80/install/centos7.8/x86_64 enabled=1 gpgcheck=0 skip_if_unavailable=True On Wed, Dec 29, 2021 at 3:06 AM <aaronhc...@gmail.com> wrote: > From the log entry, yum does not appear to be installed. > > Have you verified on a node with rpm -qa|grep yum > > On Tue, Dec 28, 2021 at 4:47 PM Mesbah Mohamady <mesbahmoham...@gmail.com> > wrote: > >> Dears, >> >> I have an issue when configuring a directory for "otherpkgs" on the >> management node to be used by compte nodes to download new RPMs: >> >> I have used the below approach: >> >> - On management node: >> # mkdir -p /install/post/otherpkgs/centos7.8/x86_64 >> # cd /install/post/otherpkgs/centos7.8/x86_64 >> # yumdownloader traceroute.x86_64 --resolve >> # createrepo . >> # vim otherpkg.pkglist >> traceroute >> # chdef -t osimage centos7.8-x86_64-install-compute >> otherpkglist=/install/post/otherpkgs/centos7.8/x86_64/otherpkg.pkglist >> # lsdef -t osimage centos7.8-x86_64-install-compute >> Object name: centos7.8-x86_64-install-compute >> imagetype=linux >> osarch=x86_64 >> osdistroname=centos7.8-x86_64 >> osname=Linux >> osvers=centos7.8 >> otherpkgdir=/install/post/otherpkgs/centos7.8/x86_64 >> >> otherpkglist=/install/post/otherpkgs/centos7.8/x86_64/otherpkg.pkglist >> pkgdir=/install/centos7.8/x86_64 >> pkglist=/opt/xcat/share/xcat/install/centos/compute.centos7.pkglist >> profile=compute >> provmethod=install >> template=/opt/xcat/share/xcat/install/centos/compute.centos7.tmpl >> # updatenode xcat-comp08 -P "otherpkgs" >> xcat-comp08: =============updatenode >> starting==================== >> >> xcat-comp08: trying to download postscripts... >> xcat-comp08: postscripts downloaded successfully >> xcat-comp08: trying to get mypostscript from 192.168.14.231... >> xcat-comp08: useradd: user 'mesbah' already exists >> xcat-comp08: groupadd: group 'admins' already exists >> xcat-comp08: postscript start..: otherpkgs xcat-comp08: pkgsarray: >> vim-enhanced bash-completion telnet, 3 >> xcat-comp08: yum: 1, apt: 0, zypper: 0 >> xcat-comp08: Loaded plugins: fastestmirror >> xcat-comp08: Cleaning repos: base extras updates xCAT-centos7.8-path0 >> xcat-otherpkgs0 >> xcat-comp08: >> *Warning: the packages vim-enhanced* bash-completion* telnet* could not >> be found in the yum/apt repository, falling back to rpm/dpkg command.
