Now that we have 28 centos boxes up and running, we really want to minimize the up2date traffic.
Is there a how to on mirroring centos?
We are using
rsync -azHv --delete-excluded --delete rsync://mirrors.kernel.org/centos/ --exclude-from=centos.excludes --bwlimit=64 --progress centos/
But then what?
Publish this mirror on a internal website, for example link it to: /var/www/html/repo/Centos (which means it will be visible on http://reposerver/repo/Centos , where reposerver resolves to the local web server.
Then modify the file /etc/yum.repos.d/Centos-Base, comment out the mirrorlist entry and add one like:
#mirrorlist=http://mirrorlist.centos.org/?release=$releasever&arch= $basearch&repo=os baseurl=http://reposerver/repo/CentOS/$releasever/os/$basearch/ (for base)
Do this for every repository that you mirror. Place this updated file in /etc/yum.repos.d/ on all your CentOS servers and the server will update from it for yum.
