Expand Up @@ -25,6 +25,8 @@ The CVMFS layer of the EESSI project consists of the usual CVMFS infrastructure:
The main prerequisite is Ansible (https://github.com/ansible/ansible),
which can be easily installed via the package manager of most Linux distributions or via `pip install`.
For more details, see the Ansible installation guide: https://docs.ansible.com/ansible/latest/installation_guide/intro_installation.html.
Note that Ansible needs to be able to log in to the remote machines where you want to install some CVMFS component,
and needs to be able to use privilege escalation (e.g. `sudo`) on those machines to execute tasks with root permission.

For the installation of all components we make use of two Ansible roles: the CVMFS installation role provided by the Galaxy project (see
https://github.com/galaxyproject/ansible-cvmfs), and a role for adding the EPEL repository (https://github.com/geerlingguy/ansible-role-repo-epel).
