Yum is a software installation manager for Redhat Linux and Related.<\/p>\n

yum is a better tool than rpm.<\/p>\n

Here, we will take the rpm packages as come with Redhat\/Centos and then we will host those packages on our own Repo Server for yum. i.e. yum will use this Repo to find installers rather than going to the Internet.<\/p>\n

Installing Yum Manager<\/strong><\/p>\n

First we have to install and configure ftp.<\/p>\n

[if vsftpd is not already installed, use rpm -ivh vsftpd, you need to mount installer dvd and run rpm under Packages folder – or similar]<\/p>\n

Check the status of vsftpd<\/strong>
\nsystemctl status vsftpd
\nsystemctl start vsftpd
\nsystemctl enable vsftpd
\ncd \/var\/ftp\/pub\/
\npwd
\nls -la
\ndf -h (see disks and default mounts)
\nmount \/dev\/sr0 \/mnt\/iso-installer
\n(mount DVD where the iso of the installer is kept. I was using VMWare Workstation Pro)<\/p>\n

Copy installer rpms from .iso to our ftp server<\/strong>
\ncd \/mnt\/iso-installer\/
\nls -la
\ncd Packages\/
\ncp -v * \/var\/ftp\/pub\/
\npwd
\nls -la<\/p>\n

Create the Repo database<\/strong>
\nWe have to create a database based on all these rpm files. This repo database will be queried by yum to find packages and dependencies to install.<\/p>\n

rpm -ivh createrepo-0.9.9-26.el7.noarch.rpm (create repo is not installed by default)<\/p>\n

createrepo .<\/p>\n

Now configure local PC [workstation with our Yum Repo\/server under ftp]. We need a file local.repo to point to our yum repo server<\/p>\n

ls \/etc\/yum.repos.d\/
\ncd \/etc\/yum.repos.d\/
\npwd
\nls -la<\/p>\n

[move existing repo files to old directory]
\nmkdir old
\nmv *.repo old\/<\/p>\n

ls -la
\ntouch local.repo<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

[need to configure local.repo]<\/strong>
\nTry to check any of the existing .repo file and create based on that. A basic config might look like this<\/p>\n

[local]
\nname=local.repo
\nbaseurl=ftp:\/\/localhost\/pub<\/p>\n

If you want to put hostname for your ftp server<\/strong><\/p>\n

vim \/etc\/hosts
\nsystemctl start vsftpd
\nsystemctl restart vsftpd
\nping localhost
\nping yumserver
\nvi \/etc\/yum.repos.d\/local.repo
\nhostnamectl set-hostname yumserver
\ncat \/etc\/hosts
\nhostnamectl set-hostname yumserver<\/p>\n

You might need to run, if you see yum does not work<\/strong>
\nyum clean
\nyum clean cache<\/p>\n

cd \/etc\/yum.repos.d\/
\ncat old\/CentOS-Base.repo
\nvim local.repo<\/p>\n

Let FTP work through Firewall<\/strong>
\nfirewall-cmd –add-service=vsftpd –perm
\nfirewall-cmd –add-service=ftp –perm
\nsystemctl reload firewalld
\nsystemctl start firewalld
\nsystemctl enable firewalld
\nvi \/etc\/yum.repos.d\/local.repo<\/p>\n

Check if your yum server is working or not<\/strong><\/p>\n

yum repolist
\nyum install tree<\/p>\n

yum repolist enabled
\nyum repolist all From: http:\/\/sitestree.com\/?p=11797
