Installing additional software packages
You can also install or reinstall a package or a package group at a later point after the OS installation with the following commands, provided that your system can access the RHEL software channels via the officially supported ways (directly or via Red Hat Satellite/Proxy):
- For installing individual packages:
yum install <package1> [<package2> [< package3> [...]]]
where <package*> are the names of the packages to be installed, e.g.:
yum install uuidd
- For installing package groups:
yum groupinstall '<group1>' ['<group2>' ['< group3' [...]]]
where <group*> are the names of the groups you want to install.
The following yum groups correspond to the groups listed for the interactive installation above:
- large-systems
- network-file-system-client
- performance
- compat-libraries
