Hi Daniela, I've having another think about this. I had assumed that, by now, the world would be getting more eager for sites to move their cluster technology to Centos7, gradually. But I was wrong - there is still too much stiction for that. Since my goal is throughput (not experimentation) I'm retreating to SL6. (VOs did not follow the technology, so the technology has to stay the same.) I'll try again later, perhaps next year. Perhaps a clearer path will emerge by then. (TODO: Get some write-up done on all these technology use-cases involving Containers. Discuss options, pros, cons and state of game at meeting.) Cheers, Ste I don't think the world is ready for Centos7 yet. On 16/10/17 12:40, Daniela Bauer wrote: > But if they can't run on SL7 ?
