OCCNE Artifact Acquisition and Hosting

Introduction

The OCCNE deployment containers require access to a number of resources that are usually downloaded from the internet. For cases where the target system is isolated from the internet, locally available repositories may be used. These repositories require provisioning with the proper files and versions, and some of the cluster configuration needs to be updated to allow the installation containers to locate these local repositories.

• A local YUM repository is needed to hold a mirror of a number of OL7 repositories, as well as the version of docker-ce that is required by OCCNE's Kubernetes deployment
• A local HTTP repository is needed to hold Kubernetes binaries and Helm charts
• A local Docker registry is needed to hold the proper Docker images to support the containers that run Kubernetes and the common services that Kubernetes will manage
• A copy of the for OS installation
• A copy of the for database nodes
