Lenovo provides yum repositories of relevant software for managing HPC as well as scale out Linux installations in general. This includes xCAT and confluent.

Adding Repository for Red Hat Enterprise Linux / AlmaLinux / Rocky Linux¶

Select the repository appropriate for the major version and architecture (x86_64 or arm64/aarch64).

rpm -ivh https://hpc.lenovo.com/yum/latest/el10/x86_64/lenovo-hpc-yum-1-1.x86_64.rpm
# or, on arm64 (aarch64):
rpm -ivh https://hpc.lenovo.com/yum/latest/el10/aarch64/lenovo-hpc-yum-1-1.aarch64.rpm

rpm -ivh https://hpc.lenovo.com/yum/latest/el9/x86_64/lenovo-hpc-yum-1-1.x86_64.rpm
# or, on arm64 (aarch64):
rpm -ivh https://hpc.lenovo.com/yum/latest/el9/aarch64/lenovo-hpc-yum-1-1.aarch64.rpm

rpm -ivh https://hpc.lenovo.com/yum/latest/el8/x86_64/lenovo-hpc-yum-1-1.x86_64.rpm

If using Red Hat, on a new Minimal Install without Red Hat Subscription Manager configured. You will need additional packages from the install media. Follow instructions to add the install media as a repository on https://access.redhat.com/solutions/1355683.

Adding Repository for Ubuntu Linux¶

Download our gpg key:

wget -O /etc/apt/trusted.gpg.d/confluent.gpg https://hpc.lenovo.com/apt/latest/lenovo-hpc.key

Create the following apt configuration (e.g. as a file like /etc/apt/sources.list.d/lenovo-hpc.sources) if running Ubuntu 24.04 (noble). This repository serves both x86_64 and arm64 (aarch64) architectures from the same URI:

Types: deb
URIs: https://hpc.lenovo.com/apt/latest/noble
Suites: noble
Components: main
Signed-By: /etc/apt/trusted.gpg.d/confluent.gpg

Then run apt update to pull the repository information.

Adding Repository for SuSE Linux Enterprise 15¶

rpm --import https://hpc.lenovo.com/yum/latest/suse15/x86_64/lenovohpckey.pub
zypper install https://hpc.lenovo.com/yum/latest/suse15/x86_64/lenovo-hpc-zypper-1-1.x86_64.rpm

Adding Local Repository¶

If you cannot reach the repository from your target system, you can download the package from a system that can reach https://hpc.lenovo.com/downloads/ and then transfer and install the repositories locally on your target system.

The files may be browsed at https://hpc.lenovo.com/downloads/:

#On a system that can reach https://hpc.lenovo.com/downloads/
#Download the package for your specific OS version
wget https://hpc.lenovo.com/downloads/latest-el9.tar.xz
#or
wget https://hpc.lenovo.com/downloads/latest-el10.tar.xz
#or
wget https://hpc.lenovo.com/downloads/latest-el8.tar.xz
#or
wget https://hpc.lenovo.com/downloads/latest-suse15.tar.xz

#On your local system
#Create folder for the local repository
mkdir /mnt/local_repo

#Extract the repository
tar -xf latest-el8.tar.xz -C /mnt/local_repo
#or
tar -xf latest-suse15.tar.xz -C /mnt/local_repo

#Create lenovo-hpc.repo to point to the local repository
cd /mnt/local_repo/lenovo-hpc-el8/
#or
cd /mnt/local_repo/lenovo-hpc-suse15/
./mklocalrepo.sh
