Hi Alex, The `$basearch` there is likely trying to act as a yum (dnf) repo file variable. Take a look at https://developers.redhat.com/articles/2022/10/07/ whats-inside-rpm-repo-file and search in the page for `$basearch`. You will see it appear in various locations in the example file. This is a placeholder variable for dnf to replace with the actual base architecture of the system it is running on. See also https://docs.redhat.com/en/documentation/red_hat_enterprise_linux/6/ html/deployment_guide/sec-using_yum_variables#sec-Using_Yum_Variables It's likely correct for the content of the repo file, but might be incorrect for the file name. I don't think simply removing the dollar sign would fix things. Perhaps a different suggestion would be to remove the variable from the file name parameter: ceph_stable_https://github.com/ceph/cephadm-ansible/blob/ 74520740e4f85ea001d7ca7ab6992ce66145bc3f/cephadm-preflight.yml#L99C24-L99C36 doing this should create mutiple repo defintions in a single repo file as per https://docs.ansible.com/ansible/latest/collections/ansible/builtin/ yum_repository_module.html (search for `Add multiple repositories into the same file`). _______________________________________________ ceph-users mailing list -- ceph-users@ceph.io To unsubscribe send an email to ceph-users-le...@ceph.io
