Getting started

OpenHPC provides pre-built binaries via repositories for use with standard Linux package manager tools (e.g. yum or zypper). Package repositories for 2.x are housed at http://repos.openhpc.community. To get started, you can enable an OpenHPC repository locally through installation of an ohpc-release RPM which includes gpg keys for package signing and defines the URL locations for [base] and [update] package repositories. Links to copies of the ohpc-release package are provided below for convenience. Installation guides tailored for each supported resource manager are also available below or in the downloads section of the latest release. Instructions for mirroring the OpenHPC repositories with rsync can be found in the wiki.
