Installing Client Packages

Manually create a globalcacheop user and a globalcache user group.

       
            groupadd globalcache
useradd -g globalcache -s /bin/bash globalcacheop

Set the password of the globalcacheop user.

       
            passwd globalcacheop

Set the umask value of the globalcacheop user to 0027.

       
            vi /home/globalcacheop/.bashrc

Add umask 0027 to the .bashrc file.

       
            # Source default setting
[ -f /etc/bashrc ] && . /etc/bashrc

umask 0027
# User environment PATH
PATH="$HOME/.local/bin:$HOME/bin:$PATH"
export PATH

Install the closed-source RPM package obtained from the Huawei Support website.

rpm -ivh boostkit-globalcache-ceph-adaptor-release-1.3.15.oe1.aarch64.rpm
cp libproxy.so /opt/gcache_adaptor_compile/third_part/lib/
chmod 500 /opt/gcache_adaptor_compile/third_part/lib/libproxy.so
chown globalcacheop:globalcache /opt/gcache_adaptor_compile/third_part/lib/libproxy.so
source /etc/profile

In the x86 environment:

rpm -ivh boostkit-globalcache-ceph-adaptor-release-1.3.15.oe1.x86_64.rpm 
cp libproxy.so /opt/gcache_adaptor_compile/third_part/lib/
chmod 500 /opt/gcache_adaptor_compile/third_part/lib/libproxy.so
chown globalcacheop:globalcache /opt/gcache_adaptor_compile/third_part/lib/libproxy.so
source /etc/profile

The libproxy.so file is obtained in Compiling Open Source Packages. The .so file obtained using the x86 compilation server can be used only on x86 client nodes, and the .so file obtained using the ARM compilation server can be used only on ARM client nodes.

Install the dependency.

yum install librbd-devel

Install the fio source package fio-3.26.tar.gz obtained from the open source website.

       
            tar -zxvf fio-3.26.tar.gz

./configure
make && make install
