Create the Repository Configuration File

A repository configuration file must be created on the DPS host. The file is required to identify the path to the repository data, establish whether a GPG signature check should be performed on the repository packages, etc. Only one repository configuration file is needed.

Steps

Navigate to the repository directory.
```
cd /etc/yum.repos.d/
```
Create a repository file.
For example:
```
vi dp.repo
```
Alternatively, you can copy an existing repository file to edit.

Add or modify the following content in the repository file.

#VERSION_NUMBER=<downloaded-version#>

[<service-name-abbreviation>]

This is composed of the service name abbreviation and version number (includes the build number). Example: DP-1.0.0-100

name=<service-name-abbreviation> Version - <service-name-abbreviation>

baseurl=http://<webserver-host-name>/<directory-containing-repo>

<webserver-host-name> is the FQDN of the web server host that contains the repository.

This is the same base URL that you used in the task to prepare the repositories.

<directory-containing-repo> is the path expanded from the tarball.

gpgcheck=1

gpgkey=http://<webserver-host-name>/<directory-containing-repo>/RPM-GPG-KEY/RPM-GPG-KEY-Jenkins

enabled=1

priority=1

Example 4.3. Example Repository File

#VERSION_NUMBER=1.0.0.0-100
[DP-1.0.0.0-100]
name=DP Version - DP-1.0.0.0-100
baseurl=http://my-repo-server/DP/centos7/1.0.0.0-100
gpgcheck=1
gpgkey=http://my-repo-server/DP/centos7/1.0.0.0-100/RPM-GPG-KEY/RPM-GPG-KEY-Jenkins
enabled=1
priority=1

If you have multiple repositories configured in your environment, edit the /etc/yum/pluginconf.d/priorities.conf file to add the following values:
```
[main]
```
```
enabled=1
```
```
gpgcheck=0
```

You are now ready to install the DPS Platform and associated UI services, such as DLM and DSS.
