HPE Ezmeral Data Fabric provides many interfaces for working with a cluster from a client computer. These interfaces are listed later on this page.
Prerequisites for Linux Hosts
Before you can set up clients on Linux hosts, you must:
- Install the package key on the client machine. See Step 2: Import the Package Key.
- Set up repositories. See Using the Data Fabric Repository (Installation).
After you have installed the package key and set up the repositories, use the steps in the following sections to install clients.
