Making local yum rpm repositorie
From Teknologisk videncenter
Install createrepo
yum install createrepo
Make directory structure
- A directory called base which holds local copy of RPM's
- A directory called updates which holds the updates.
On this server which is a PXE install server the RPM's are already resident on the ftp server /var/ftp/install/centos52/CentOS/RPMS which I just link to the repositorie
mkdir -p/var/www/html/Centos/52/yum/updates ln -s /var/ftp/install/centos52/CentOS/RPMS /var/www/html/Centos/52/yum/base
Now create the base repository headers: (Takes a couple of minuttes)
createrepo creates some files in a new repodata directory.
[root@ks ~]# createrepo /var/www/html/Centos/52/yum [root@ks ~]# ls /var/www/html/Centos/52/yum/repodata filelists.xml.gz other.xml.gz primary.xml.gz repomd.xml
