Hi all,
I'm going to create a local mirror using information found on: https://wiki.centos.org/HowTos/CreateLocalMirror
From the I know that I could use reposync or an rsync script to sync my mirror. But I'm not sure what the pros and cons of either method are.
As far as I know I have to choose one specific mirror nearby when using rsync. If this mirror is not available I have to change my script to use another one.
Using reposync I guess it would choose the fastest mirror from the configured yum repos of my installation.
Please correct me, if I'm wrong in my assumptions.
Maybe in the future I would like to provide a public mirror. Is there any preferred sync method for this scenario?
I'm looking forward to hearing your thoughts.
Regards, Joerg
