Agreed. But, will "yum install" work if we do not have content in those folders?
What about the ISOs? Running the "--delete" deletes the ISOs as well. Is there way to keep the ISOs inspite of using this flag?
Will omitting the "--delete" flag make our server unsuitable to become a public mirror?

Is it ok to run the rsync without the "--delete" flag?
Not a very good idea since you will keep accumulating outdated content - instead of keeping only the latest version of packages, you will end up keeping every version that is ever released (sort of).
