Configure DNF/Yum Mirror Server2022/07/07

	Configure Local DNF/Yum Repository Server to update packages faster for local Servers. On this example, Configure [BaseOS], [AppStream], [Extras] mirror repositories that are enabled by default on CentOS Stream 9.
[1]	Install and start Apache httpd, refer to here.
[2]	Install other required packages.

[root@dlp ~]#

dnf -y install yum-utils

[3]	Create directories for repository and copy data from CentOS Stream official Repository.

[root@dlp ~]#

mkdir -p /var/www/repos/centos-stream/9/x86_64/os

[root@dlp ~]#

chmod -R 755 /var/www/repos

# copy from official repository

[root@dlp ~]#

reposync -p /var/www/repos/centos-stream/9/x86_64/os/ --repo=baseos --download-metadata

[root@dlp ~]#

reposync -p /var/www/repos/centos-stream/9/x86_64/os/ --repo=appstream --download-metadata

[root@dlp ~]#

reposync -p /var/www/repos/centos-stream/9/x86_64/os/ --repo=extras-common --download-metadata

[4]	Add copy task to daily jobs.

[root@dlp ~]#

vi /etc/cron.daily/update-repo

# create new

#!/bin/bash

VER='9'
ARCH='x86_64'
REPOS=(baseos appstream extras-common)

for REPO in ${REPOS[@]}
do
    reposync -p /var/www/repos/centos-stream/${VER}/${ARCH}/os/ --repo=${REPO} --download-metadata --newest-only
done

[root@dlp ~]#

chmod 755 /etc/cron.daily/update-repo

[5]	Configure Apache httpd to provide repository for other Client Hosts.

[root@dlp ~]#

vi /etc/httpd/conf.d/repos.conf

# create new

Alias /repos /var/www/repos
<directory /var/www/repos>
    Options +Indexes
    Require all granted
</directory>

[root@dlp ~]#

systemctl restart httpd

[6]	If Firewalld is running, allow HTTP service.

[root@dlp ~]#

firewall-cmd --add-service=http

success
[root@dlp ~]#

firewall-cmd --runtime-to-permanent

success

[7]	On Client Hosts, Change settings of DNF/Yum to refer to Local DNF/Yum Mirror Host.
