Install git package using yum on Storage server.

After that create a bare repository /opt/media.git (make sure to use exact name).

  Please Note :-  Perform the below commands based on your question  server,  user name & other details might differ . So please read task carefully before executing. All the Best 👍

Solution:  

1. At first login on storage server  & switch to root user

thor@jump_host /$ ssh natasha@ststor01 The authenticity of host 'ststor01 (172.16.238.15)' can't be established. ECDSA key fingerprint is SHA256:IxwAD3ZVWxJeoVZGlhqWNAp/2Waue9JvaV7Hz6hyyfg. ECDSA key fingerprint is MD5:87:7c:77:5f:04:db:fa:a3:35:82:e6:d9:d4:f0:1c:35. Are you sure you want to continue connecting (yes/no)? yes Warning: Permanently added 'ststor01,172.16.238.15' (ECDSA) to the list of known hosts. natasha@ststor01's password: [natasha@ststor01 ~]$ sudo su -  We trust you have received the usual lecture from the local System Administrator. It usually boils down to these three things:      #1) Respect the privacy of others.     #2) Think before you type.     #3) With great power comes great responsibility.  [sudo] password for natasha: [root@ststor01 ~]#

2. Install git 

[root@ststor01 ~]# yum install -y git Loaded plugins: fastestmirror, ovl Determining fastest mirrors  * base: mirrors.vangus.co.il  * extras: linux.darkpenguin.net  * updates: linux.darkpenguin.net base                                                      | 3.6 kB  00:00:00     extras                                                    | 2.9 kB  00:00:00     updates                                                   | 2.9 kB  00:00:00     (1/4): base/7/x86_64/group_gz                             | 153 kB  00:00:00     (2/4): extras/7/x86_64/primary_db                         | 242 kB  00:00:00     (3/4): updates/7/x86_64/primary_db                        | 8.8 MB  00:00:00     (4/4): base/7/x86_64/primary_db                           | 6.1 MB  00:00:00     Resolving Dependencies --> Running transaction check ---> Package git.x86_64 0:1.8.3.1-23.el7_8 will be installed --> Processing Dependency: perl-Git = 1.8.3.1-23.el7_8 for package: git-1.8.3.1-23.el7_8.x86_64 --> Processing Dependency: perl >= 5.008 for package: git-1.8.3.1-23.el7_8.x86_64 Installed:   git.x86_64 0:1.8.3.1-23.el7_8                                                   Dependency Installed:   groff-base.x86_64 0:1.22.2-8.el7                                                 less.x86_64 0:458-9.el7                                                          libedit.x86_64 0:3.0-12.20121213cvs.el7 Complete! [root@ststor01 ~]#

3. Verify Installed git version & path where git need to initiated

[root@ststor01 ~]# rpm -qa |grep git git-1.8.3.1-23.el7_8.x86_64 [root@ststor01 ~]# [root@ststor01 ~]# ll /opt total 0  [root@ststor01 ~]#

4. Make sure you init  bare  repo in given path 

[root@ststor01 ~]# cd /opt/ [root@ststor01 opt]# ll total 0 [root@ststor01 opt]# git init  --bare media.git Initialized empty Git repository in /opt/media.git/ [root@ststor01 opt]# [root@ststor01 opt]# ll total 4 drwxr-xr-x 3 root root 4096 Jun 15 07:18 media.git [root@ststor01 opt]# git status fatal: Not a git repository (or any of the parent directories): .git [root@ststor01 opt]#
