Relocatable Yurconf RPMs #13

Closed ykryshchuk closed 10 years ago

ykryshchuk commented 10 years ago

Currently we support two RPM layouts: Standard and Alternative

The Alternative layout may be relatively easy converted to relocatable. e.g. the operator may specify installation root on install command. We need to adjust the packaging scripts and launch scripts to properly react on custom install root

ykryshchuk commented 10 years ago

The 'alt' packages (om, client and server) are created as relocatable.

By default they install into /opt/yurconf. The installation location can be changed on command line when using rpm:

rpm -i --prefix=/opt/mycompany yurconf-client.rpm

That is, if a relocation is really required then Yurconf packages can be installed individually as specified above. Note, that packages have to be installed into the same root in order to function properly.

This does not work, however, with yum command, as it does not support relocations.
