CERN openlab Phase I - opencluster

Installation and configuration of LCG middleware on IA64

 

Tag: LCG-2_4_0

Installation of LCG on IA64 does not yet support apt. Thus the following procedure is proposed:

Download the rpms manually following the instructions here. Install the rpms, then use YAIM to configure the middleware. The current YAIM release needs a small patch to work with IA64. This is described in the LCG-2_4_0 release notes for IA64. To install LCG-2_4_0 on IA64 read first the following documents (keep in mind that apt is not supported on IA64):

  1. Read the LCG Generic Installation and Configuration document.

  2. Read the Release notes for LCG-2_4_0 on Intel Itanium 2.

Don't skip the "Release notes for LCG-2_4_0 on Intel Itanium 2" - they contain important information to install LCG properly on IA64 !
