Sometimes we may need to install a bunch of rpm files at once . If we configure local yum repository , we can install all rpm files at once with yum command. <\/p>\n

If a vendor is frequently updating the packages in the remote repository and you just want to stick with old packages , then you can download all rpm packages from teh vendor remote base URL and add them to local repository and then run yum install package<\/em>.<\/p>\n

To create a rpm repository first install “createrepo” package by running yum install createrepo<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n

make a directory where you want to copy all rpm files.<\/p>\n

# mkdir \/My_repository<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n

# cp<\/strong><\/em> from_rpms_directory\/* \/My_repository<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n

Now run command<\/p>\n

#createrepo \/My_repository<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n

Add repository file in \/etc\/yum.repos.d\/<\/p>\n

#vi \/etc\/yum.repos.d\/my_app.repo<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n

then add the entries like <\/p>\n

[my_app]
\nname=My application from local repository
\nbaseurl=file:\/\/\/My_repository\/
\nenabled=1
\ngpgcheck=0<\/em><\/p>\n

Now we can issue yum command to install my_app package<\/p>\n

# yum install my_app<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n

If you have a web server running ,you can upload rpm files to the web directory and just replace file:\/\/<\/em> with http:\/\/<\/em> .<\/p>\n

this way you can share this repository with other servers when you needed .<\/p>\n

example baseurl=http:\/\/mywebserver_ip\/repo\/<\/em> .<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
