Install the RPM

Refer to the following steps to install SCS RPM with Internet access:

1. Install epel-release 7 using yum -y install epel-release command.

2. Create Podman 3 repo /etc/yum.repos.d/devel:kubic:libcontainers:stable.repo. The user must verify the format of the file name is exactly as written.

   [devel_kubic_libcontainers_stable] 
   name=Stable Releases of Upstream github.com/containers packages (CentOS_7)
   type=rpm-md
   baseurl=https://download.opensuse.org/repositories/devel:/kubic:/libcontainers:/stable/CentOS_7/
   gpgcheck=1
   gpgkey=https://download.opensuse.org/repositories/devel:/kubic:/libcontainers:/stable/CentOS_7/repodata/repomd.xml.key
   enabled=1

   Or download Kubic repo from SUSE.

   curl –k -L -o /etc/yum.repos.d/devel:kubic:libcontainers:stable.repo https://download.opensuse.org/repositories/devel:kubic:libcontainers:stable/CentOS_7/devel:kubic:libcontainers:stable.repo 

3. List the enabled repos via yum repolist enabled to ensure Kubic is on the list.

4. Install SCS build yum -y install swarm-scs-1.1.0-1.x86_64.rpm.

5. Check the scsctl help command to verify the SCS platform is installed.
