How to obtain the list of EPEL package dependancies for an Apigee Private Cloud installation

[ncardace]

An Apigee Private Cloud installation requires dependancies from EPEL.

How can one identify the full list of specific RPM packages retrieved from EPEL and corresponding versions for a given RHEL Linux distribution ?

Perform the following steps: 

a) start with a single VM with exactly the same OS RHEL version - you would either need to ask the customer to prepare one with the allow-list disabled or use

a cloud provider which provides vanilla RHEL VMs (as they include the RHEL license)

b) perform a basic AIO installation

setup.sh -f config.aio -p aio

c) use the following to list the EPEL packages installed, which will need to be allow-listed or the other restricted installations:

yum repo-pkgs epel list installed
