Upgrading Endeavour nodes to Centos 6 started March 17, 2015 with node2:

  • Reboot Node2 from a USB key with Centos6 distribution installed. Chose "minimal install"
    • Note: Should have added scp, i.e openssh-client stuff. Added this "by hand" by using from endeavour: cat openssh-client-... | ssh node2 "cat - > openssh-client.rpm" and then installing that rpm.
  • SSH into the system
  • Copy the Centos ISO to node2 with scp. Mount on /mnt/centos
  • Install packages with: yum --disablerepo \* --enablerepo c6-media install
  • List of old package installed are in ~root/new_packages.txt with the distribution and package version stripped already. From this list, the packages were filtered into "installed" and "available" with yum. From the resulting list of "available" only the x86_64 and noarch packages were installed.
