Pull non-latest tag #11

Closed jdahm closed 4 years ago

jdahm commented 4 years ago

Can sarus pull tags other than latest? From the help string it seems that it cannot. What is the recommended process to do so on Piz Daint?

Hello @jdahm, Sarus can indeed pull images using any tag, not just latest. The CLI for doing do is the same as with Docker: the image name should be followed by a colon and then the tag, i.e. ubuntu:18.04. This is also shown in the Sarus User guide.

As far as Sarus goes, the procedure to pull images with a specific tag on Piz Daint is no different than on any other system.

Hi @Madeeks - Thanks for letting me know. My colleague and I were having difficulty pulling a specific image, but the issue must have been elsewhere. I'll try again next time I'm logged into daint.
