Offline Spacewalk Server – Create Repo

by

I have a CentOS7 server running Spacewalk 2.6

This server manages multiple other centOS servers on a closed loop network. These are not allowed to touch the internet.

To add packages to the Spacewalk server, I must download to a USB HDD and move them over manually.

My question is, how do I create a repo under a channel that points to local storage (since I don’t have a Repository URL) and is there a default location on the file system that packages should be placed / stored?

Answer

  1. Make local package directory as a Local Repo : Use createrepo command
  2. install FTP/HTTP to create a link which can be pointing from spacewalk Channel Repo.

Eg: ftp://10.80.10.199/pub/centos6.
