I have read through How to Provide Information About Your System and when I run the command (logged in as root) 'yum install getinfo' the result is "No package getinfo available."
I did follow the instructions on the forum and enabled the ELRepo repository for CentOS7 by following the instructions on the home page of elrepo.org. Since yum wouldn't work, I copied the script from the getinfo.sh link and created getinfo in a local folder and used chmod +x to make it executable. I have include the results of the getinfo.sh package command below. I don't know if I am correct, but I think that the fact that 'yum install getinfo' didn't work is an indication that something is not configured correctly on my system. Thanks for helping.

# This is the default, if you make this bigger yum won't see if the metadata
# is newer on the remote and so you'll "gain" the bandwidth of not having to
# download the new metadata and "pay" for it by yum not having correct
# information.
# It is esp. important, to have correct metadata, for distributions like
# Fedora which don't keep old packages around. If you don't like this checking
# interupting your command line usage, it's much better to have something
# manually check the metadata once an hour (yum-updatesd will do this).
