Install OpenVINO Runtime

Step 1: Set Up the Repository

  1. Create the YUM repo file in the /tmp directory as a normal user:

    tee > /tmp/openvino-2022.repo << EOF
    [OpenVINO]
    name=Intel(R) Distribution of OpenVINO 2022
    baseurl=https://yum.repos.intel.com/openvino/2022
    enabled=1
    gpgcheck=1
    repo_gpgcheck=1
    gpgkey=https://yum.repos.intel.com/intel-gpg-keys/GPG-PUB-KEY-INTEL-SW-PRODUCTS.PUB
    EOF
  2. Move the new openvino-2022.repo file to the YUM configuration directory /etc/yum.repos.d :

    sudo mv /tmp/openvino-2022.repo /etc/yum.repos.d
  3. Verify that the new repo is properly setup by running the following command:

    yum repolist | grep -i openvino

    You will see the available list of packages.

To list available OpenVINO packages, use the following command:

yum list 'openvino*'

Step 2: Install OpenVINO Runtime Using the YUM Package Manager

Step 3 (Optional): Install Software Dependencies

After you have installed OpenVINO Runtime, if you decided to install OpenVINO Model Development Tools, make sure that you install external software dependencies first.

Refer to Install External Software Dependencies for detailed steps.

Step 4 (Optional): Configure Inference on Non-CPU Devices

To enable the toolkit components to use processor graphics (GPU) on your system, follow the steps in GPU Setup Guide.

Step 5: Build Samples

To build the C++ or C sample applications for Linux, run the build_samples.sh script:

/usr/share/openvino/samples/cpp/build_samples.sh
/usr/share/openvino/samples/c/build_samples.sh

For more information, refer to Build the Sample Applications on Linux.
