Adding the Internet Repository on SUSE

This section describes how to install the Internet repository.

To verify that a SUSE release is supported by the HPE Ezmeral Data Fabric, see Operating System Support Matrix (Release 6.x).
  1. Change to the root user or use sudo.
  2. Use the following command to add the repository for data-fabric packages, replacing <version> with the version of data-fabric software that you want to install:
    zypper ar https://package.mapr.com/releases/v6.x.x/suse/ maprtech
  3. Use the following command to add the repository for ecosystem packages: (For the correct paths for all past releases, see the Data Fabric Repositories and Packages.)
    zypper ar https://package.mapr.com/releases/MEP/MEP-<version>/suse/ maprecosystem
  4. If your connection to the Internet is through a proxy server, you must set the http_proxy environment variable before installation:
    http_proxy=http://<host>:<port>
                  export http_proxy
  5. Update the system package index by running the following command:
    zypper refresh
  6. data-fabric packages require a compatibility package in order to install and run on SUSE. Execute the following command to install the SUSE compatibility package:
    zypper install mapr-compat-suse
