Question : The Nautilus production support team and security team had a meeting last month in which they decided to use local yum repositories for maintaing packages needed for their servers. For now they have decided to configure a local yum repo on Nautilus Backup Server. This is one of the pending items from last month, so please configure a local yum repository on Nautilus Backup Server as per details given below.
a. We have some packages already present at location /packages/downloaded_rpms/ on Nautilus Backup Server.
b. Create a yum repo named local_yum and make sure to set Repository ID to local_yum. Configure it to use package's location /packages/downloaded_rpms/.
c. Install package httpd from this newly created repo.
Please Note :- Perform the below commands based on your question server, user name & other details that might differ. So please read the task carefully before executing it. All the Best 👍
Solution:
1. At first login on Backup server & Switch to root user

~]$ sudo su - We trust you have received the usual lecture from the local System Administrator.
It usually boils down to these three things: #1) Respect the privacy of others. #2) Think before you type. #3) With great power comes great
responsibility. [sudo] password for clint: [root@stbkp01

2. Run the Below command to check is there already any yum repository is available
|
[root@stbkp01
~]# yum repolist Loaded plugins:
fastestmirror, ovl Determining
fastest mirrors repolist: 0 [root@stbkp01
~]# |
3. Since there is no repo you need to create local repo as per the task
|
[root@stbkp01
~]# vi /etc/yum.repos.d/local_yum.repo [root@stbkp01
~]# cat /etc/yum.repos.d/local_yum.repo [local_yum] name=local_yum baseurl=file:///packages/downloaded_rpms/ enabled = 1 gpgcheck = 0 [root@stbkp01
