Deploy Dell PowerFlex v3.6.x

• sdc.kernel.repo.SCINI_REPO_ADDRESS

  The value of this variable is encoded as <protocol>://[<address>]/<path>

  Where <protocol>:= ftp | sftp | file

  The following example uses the address of the Dell EMC repository:

  sdc.kernel.repo.SCINI_REPO_ADDRESS=ftp://QNzgdxXix:Aw3wFAwAq3@ftp.emc.com

• sdc.kernel.repo.SCINI_REPO_USER

  Contains the user name that is used as login name. Needed when the protocol is FTP or SFTP.

  Example:

  sdc.kernel.repo.SCINI_REPO_USER=admin

• sdc.kernel.repo.SCINI_REPO_PASSWORD

  Represents the password. Needed only for FTP protocol.

  Example:

  sdc.kernel.repo.SCINI_REPO_PASSWORD=password

• sdc.kernel.repo.SCINI_REPO_USER_KEY=<path_to_private_key>

  Contains a path to the private RSA key used for SSH connections (user identity file). Needed only for SFTP.

  Example:

   sdc.kernel.repo.SCINI_REPO_USER_KEY=<path_to_private_key>

• sdc.kernel.repo.SCINI_REPO_HOST_KEY=<path_to_public_key>

  Contains a path to the repository server's public host key, used for SSH connections. Needed only for SFTP.

  Example:

  sdc.kernel.repo.SCINI_REPO_HOST_KEY=<path_to_public_key>

• sdc.kernel.repo.SCINI_REPO_MODULE_SIGCHECK

  Set to 0 or 1, to determine whether the fetched kernel modules must be verified.

  Example:

  sdc.kernel.repo.SCINI_REPO_MODULE_SIGCHECK=1

• sdc.kernel.repo.SCINI_REPO_EMC_KEY

  Contains a path to the EMC GPG public key file that is needed for signature verification. You can retrieve the GPG key (RPM-GPG-KEY-ScaleIO_<version>.XXX.X.0) from the folder in the root of the ISO: ScaleIO_<version>.X.X_GPG-RPM-KEY_Download.zip

  This is the same file used by LIA to verify RPMs. It needs to be set only if SCINI_REPO_MODULE_SIGCHECK was set to 1.

  Example:

   sdc.kernel.repo.SCINI_REPO_EMC_KEY=<path_to_key>/RPM-GPG-KEY-ScaleIO_3.0.168.0

You can now deploy the system. During the deployment, a driver_sync.conf file is generated for the SDC and for RFcache in their respective folders:

• SDC: /etc/emc/scaleio/scini_sync
• RFcache: /etc/emc/scaleio/xcache_sync
