IF your plnodes cannot run yum, you'll have to install the RPMs by hand during that step. You may be able to save yourself time by caching the RPMs and their dependencies on your MyPLC '''before''' you actually install them on the MyPLC. Using [wiki:GpoLab/MyplcPackageInstallationTips#UseyumdownloadertodownloadpackagesanddependenciesontheMyPLC yumdownloader to download packages and dependencies] has worked for us. If you want to try that, do it now, before installing the packages on the MyPLC for the first time, or it will be of limited help. |
