Hi Guys
Apologies in advance for the noise.
I am interested in setting up my OWN mirrorlist like http://mirrorlist.centos.org/?release=7&arch=x86_64&repo=os&infr... where it pulls a few local mirrors, but mine would be statically set with 3 or 4 different location URL's
Basically my plan here is, if the closest mirror I operate cannot be reached, it will try another mirror from a different geographic location
I was wondering if anybody on-list might be able to provide some insight on how I can accomplish this? And use ?release= and &arch= and &repo= ?
Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.
Cheers

Hi Daniel,
that's what we do for ouw own centos infra, and is really simple : - dns override for mirrorlist.centos.org - local httpd vhost that returns what yum is expecting
I gave a talk last year about caching things, and also redirecting to such internal mirrors transparently : https://people.centos.org/arrfab/Events/CentOS-Dojo-2018/Content%20caching%2... Starting reading around slide 11
PS : I'd consider starting a new thread on the main centos list, as it's probably a better place to discuss such thread ?
