Local Repository

⦾ Why does the local_repo.yml playbook execution fail at TASK [parse_and_download : Display Failed Packages] ?

Potential Cause: This issue is encountered if Omnia fails to download any software package while executing local_repo.yml playbook. Download failures can occur if:

  • The URL to download the software packages mentioned in the <cluster_os_type>/<cluster_os_version>/<software>.json is incorrect or the repository is unreachable.

  • The provided Docker credentials are incorrect or if you encounter a Docker pull limit issue. For more information, click here.

  • If the disk space is insufficient while downloading the package.

Resolution: Re-run the local_repo.yml playbook while ensuring the following:

  • URL to download the software packages mentioned in <cluster_os_type>/<cluster_os_version>/<software>.json is correct, and the repository is reachable.

  • Docker credentials provided in input/provision_config_credentials is correct.

  • Sufficient disk space is available while downloading the package. For disk space considerations, see the Omnia installation guide.

If the local_repo.yml is executed successfully without any package download failures, a “success” message is displayed as shown below:
