Accessing the HPE Ezmeral Token-Authenticated Internet Repository
Describes special considerations for using the token-authenticated internet repository for Data Fabric software and the ecosystem components.
Accessing the Token-Authenticated Repository
- Navigate to the repository at https://package.ezmeral.hpe.com/. The authorization dialog box is displayed:
- In the Username field, paste the email address for your HPE Passport account. To obtain an HPE Passport Account, see Obtaining an HPE Passport Account.
- In the Password field, paste a token. To obtain a token, see Obtaining a Token.
- Click Sign in.
Format for Passing an HPE User Name and Token to the Repository
Any files or scripts that point to the new Data Fabric internet repository must include the email address and token associated with a valid HPE account expressed in the following format:
https://<email-address>:<token>@package.ezmeral.hpe.com/
Examples for Accessing the Repository
wget
command with the new repository, you must add
the email address and token as
follows:wget --user=jane.smith@company.com --password=<token> https://package.ezmeral.hpe.com/releases/installer/mapr-setup.sh -P /tmp
Depending
on the Linux distribution, other formats might be needed.Obtaining an HPE Passport Account
An HPE Passport account is required to obtain support for Data Fabric products and gives you access to important HPE services. To obtain an HPE Passport account, visit the MY HPE SOFTWARE CENTER and click Sign In to create a new account.
When you fill in information about your account, be sure to complete ALL of the fields (even fields that are not required). Leaving some fields blank can cause issues when you later try to access HPE repositories.
Obtaining a Token
A token associated with your HPE Passport account is required to obtain access to the HPE Ezmeral internet repositories. You can create a new token at any time by using the following steps. A token created in this way does not expire. The token remains valid even after you create a new token.
- Visit the HPE Support Center User Token page.
- Sign in if needed using your HPE Passport user ID and password.
