Create a base CentOS 7 image for installation of all HySDS component instances

1. Start up a CentOS 7 instance. Use image from http://cloud.centos.org/centos/7/images/ for private cloud provisioning. For public cloud provisioning use CentOS 7 x86_64 HVM image at https://wiki.centos.org/Cloud/AWS.

   # This file controls the state of SELinux on the system. # SELINUX= can take one of these three values: # enforcing - SELinux security policy is enforced. # permissive - SELinux prints warnings instead of enforcing. # disabled - No SELinux policy is loaded. SELINUX=disabled # SELINUXTYPE= can take one of three two values: # targeted - Targeted processes are protected, # minimum - Modification of targeted policy. Only selected processes are protected. # mls - Multi Level Security protection. SELINUXTYPE=targeted

4. Install EPEL repo, update and upgrade:

   yum install -y epel-release yum update

5. Install requisite yum packages:

6. Clean yum cache:

7. Clean cloud-init data:

8. Create an image of this instance using the method that pertains to your private/public cloud implementation. This image will now be used for generating all other HySDS component instances.
