Yum Repository Setup


This document explains how to create local yum repositories and configure up2date and yum to install and update packages from them.

Server Setup

Prerequisites:

  • A machine running Enterprise Linux 4, Oracle Linux 5 or Oracle Linux 6, for i386 or x86_64.
  • A valid CSI

The steps below describe how to download latest packages from Unbreakable Linux Network and make them available through a local yum server. i386, x86_64, and ia64 repositories can be created and hosted on a single machine.

  1. Register the machine on the Unbreakable Linux Network.
    1. For Enterprise Linux 4 and Oracle Linux 5:
      1. Import the RPM GPG key
        2. rpm --import /usr/share/rhn/RPM-GPG-KEY
      2. Run up2date in text mode.
        3. up2date-nox --register
      3. Register the machine. Enter username, password, and a valid CSI.
    2. For Oracle Linux 6:
      1. Run the uln_register command.
        2. uln_register
      2. Register the machine. Enter username, password, and a valid CSI.
  2. Subscribe the machine to all desired channels in addition to those required channels listed in step 4a below.
    1. Open up a web browser and go to linux.oracle.com.
    2. Log in with username and password that were used to register the machine
    3. Click on the Systems tab on the upper right corner
    4. Find the registered machine on the list and click on it
    5. Click on the EDIT button
    6. Check the Yum Server checkbox and click on the Apply Changes button
    7. Check all channels for which you wish to create yum repositories for and click subscribe.

  3. Create a yum repository base directory in /var/www/html. This directory will house the repository. Make sure that the yum repository owner has the read/write permission to this directory.
    4. mkdir -p /var/www/html/yum
    Approximate space requirements for each channel:

    Channel

    Binaries Only

    Binaries and Source
    el*/ol*_latest 3-10G 5-15G
    el*/ol*_addons 600M 1G
    el*/ol*_oracle 1G N/A
    el*/ol*_base 3G 5.5G
    el*/ol*_patch 1G 2G
    ovm*_latest 500M 1G
    ovm*_base 400M 800M
    ovm*_patch 100M 200M

  4. Populate the repository
    1. Download 167283.sh. Edit repository locations in the script if they are different from what you have.
    2. Register the machine to correct latest and addons channels. Required channels depend on the version and architecture of the OS that is running on the machine.
      OS Arch Required Channels
      Enterprise Linux 4 i386 el4_i386_latest el4_i386_addons
      Enterprise Linux 4 x86_64 el4_x86_64_latest el4_x86_64_addons
      Enterprise Linux 5 i386 el5_i386_latest el5_i386_addons
      Enterprise Linux 5 x86_64 el5_x86_64_latest el5_x86_64_addons
      Oracle Linux 5 i386 ol5_i386_latest el5_i386_addons
      Oracle Linux 5 x86_64 ol5_x86_64_latest el5_x86_64_addons
      Oracle Linux 6 i386 ol6_i386_latest ol6_i386_addons
      Oracle Linux 6 x86_64 ol6_x86_64_latest ol6_x86_64_addons
      This allows 167283.sh to install the uln-yum-proxy package, which in turn will install packages needed to create yum repositories.
    3. Run 167283.sh. This will create yum repositories for the channels registered.
      • Binary RPMs only
        • To download binary RPMs only, run the script without any options. 
        sh 167283.sh
      • Binary and source RPMs
        • To download both binary and source RPMs, run the script with option "src". 
        sh 167283.sh src
  5. Start the web server
    6. chkconfig httpd on
/etc/init.d/httpd start
  6. Please update the repository regularly by running 167283.sh, It is recommended that this be done once or twice a day.

Client Setup

  1. Import the GPG key
    2. rpm --import /usr/share/rhn/RPM-GPG-KEY
  2. Configure up2date to use the yum repository (Enterprise Linux 4, Enterprise Linux 5 or Oracle Linux 5 only). Edit /etc/sysconfig/rhn/sources. Comment out line 
    up2date default
    to 
    #up2date default

    and add the following lines. Replace <repository_server> with the hostname of the machine that is hosting the yum repository. Comment and uncomment individual repositories as needed.

  3. The following steps are required for users using the yum client
    1. Install python-urlgrabber if it is not already installed. This applies only to x86_64 versions of Enterprise Linux 4 U4 and U5.
      1. If commented out, uncomment the line in /etc/sysconfig/rhn/sources that begins with
        2. #yum el4_addons [...]
      2. Run up2date to install python-urlgrabber.
        3. up2date -i python-urlgrabber
      3. Comment out the line in /etc/sysconfig/rhn/sources if needed.

    2. Replace /etc/yum.repos.d/ULN-Base.repo with the following. Note that only the latest channel is enabled by default. Replace <repository_server> with the hostname ir ip address of the machine that is hosting the yum repository.
