Using the HPE Ezmeral Token-Authenticated Internet Repository
Describes special considerations for using the token-authenticated internet repository for Data Fabric software and the ecosystem components.
What To Do If Your Installation Points to the Old Repositories
On October 2, 2023, the following internet repositories were redirected to point to the
new repository URL:If your currently installed Data Fabric software points to one of these older repositories, you must make
some changes to enable your installation to work with the new token-authenticated
repository:
https://package.ezmeral.hpe.com/
You need to do the following:
- Obtain an HPE Passport account if you don't already have one
- Obtain a token for your HPE account
- Update the Installer to 1.18.0.3 (if your installation uses the Installer)
- Update any installation or upgrade files that point to the internet repository (see the following considerations)
- Reconfigure clients that point to the internet repository (see the following considerations)
- Update any scripts that point to the internet repository (see the following considerations)
Format for Passing an HPE User Name and Password to the Repository
Any files or scripts that point to the new Data Fabric internet repository must include the email address and token associated with a valid HPE Passport account expressed in the following format:
https://<email-address>:<token>@package.ezmeral.hpe.com/
Examples for Accessing the Repository
In examples that require you to run Linux commands that point to the repository, this
guide shows the format that is needed for including the email and token. For example, to
use a
wget
command with the new repository, you must add the email
address and token as
follows:wget --user=jane.smith@company.com --password=<token> https://package.ezmeral.hpe.com/releases/installer/mapr-setup.sh -P /tmp
Depending
on the Linux distribution, other formats might be needed.
