Hi All,
there are multiple pieces of information floating around on how to set
up a machine
for running OST. Some of them outdated (like dealing with el7), some
of them more recent,
but still a bit messy.
Not long ago, in some email conversation, Milan presented an ansible
playbook that provided
the steps necessary to do that. We've picked up the playbook, tweaked
it a bit, made a convenience shell script wrapper that runs it, and
pushed that into OST project [1].
This script, along with the playbook, should be our
single-source-of-truth, one-stop
solution for the job. It's been tested by a couple of persons and
proved to be able
to set up everything on a bare (rh)el8 machine. If you encounter any
problems with the script
please either report it on the devel mailing list, directly to me, or
simply file a patch.
Let's keep it maintained.
Regards, Marcin
