RHEL 6 Local Installation

This task augments the existing installation instructions with additional steps needed to install Eucalyptus from a local repository.

This task is not standalone; it augments the existing installation instructions.

To install Eucalyptus from behind a firewall on RHEL 6:

  1. Download the Eucalyptus repository to a local directory. For example:
    wget -r --no-parent --certificate /etc/pki/tls/certs/eucalyptus-enterprise.crt
    --private-key /etc/pki/tls/private/eucalyptus-enterprise.key
    http://downloads.eucalyptus.com/
    software/eucalyptus/3.1/rhel/6/x86_64/eucalyptus-release-3.1.noarch.rpm -P /root/3.1-rhel6-packages                   
  2. In step 1 of the instructions, modify the baseurl to point to the local repository:
    baseurl=file:///root/3.1-rhel6-packages                    
  3. Proceed with the existing installation instructions.
  4. Install euca2ools
  5. Download euca2ools:
    wget -r --no-parent http://downloads.eucalyptus.com/software/
    euca2ools/2.1/rhel/6/x86_64/euca2ools-release-2.1.noarch.rpm -P /root/local-euca2ools-repo                    
  6. In step 2 of the installation instructions, modify the baseurl to point to the local repository:
    baseurl=file:///root/local-euca2ools-repo/downloads.eucalyptus.com/software/euca2ools/2.1/rhel/6/x86_64               
  7. Run yum update.
