Several websites and servers provide resources related to the CernVM-Filesystem. Here we give an overview of these and possible alternatives in case of outages.
Main website:
This is the main entrypoint to CernVM-related information. Has links for downloads of packages, but usually no critical files are hosted here.The packages can be browsed on the
- cernvm.cern.ch
- Alternative url: cernvm.web.cern.ch
- Source hosted on github: GitHub - cernvm/web-cvmfs: CernVM-FS web presence
Documentation
- cvmfs.readthedocs.io
- source hosted on github: GitHub - cvmfs/doc-cvmfs: CernVM-FS Documentation
Package downloads and repositories:
CVMFS packages are hosted on three independent servers:
- https://ecsft.cern.ch/dist - Download area for packages and other files, organised by version. Does not provide yum/apt repository information. Nightly builds can be found as well
- cvmrepo.s3.cern.ch Main yum/apt repository server, backed by S3. Not browsable.
- cvmrepo.web.cern.ch - Browsable yum/apt repository server, backed by EOS. Mirrors cvmrepo.s3.cern.ch
The cvmfs-release package is currently only downloadable from http://ecsft.cern.ch/dist/cvmfs/cvmfs-release/ . I’ll add it to the package repositories in the future. It’s a meta-package that sets up the yum or apt repositories. The same can be done manually fairly easily - will add instructions here soon.
