Dear all,
We are trying to setup an IPS server at a local university. We have
followed steps to import the content from repo DVD and got the SMF
service running. The IPS server now is hosting 0.5.11-0.111 build. In
order to download all the intermediate builds from 'dev' repo, we ran
the following rsync command to download files to local inst_root:
/usr/bin/rsync -a pkg.opensolaris.org::osol_dev_files
/opensolaris/repo/file
Once the rsync command was completed, we refreshed and restarted the IPS
server. However, from the web page of the IPS server, it still shows
only 0.5.11-0.111 release is served. Did I miss anything?
The repository offered on DVD contains both the package metadata and
package content.
The rsync service we provide currently only offers the package content.
As such, you can only use the rsync service we provide when running
the pkg.depotd with the --mirror option (or pkg/mirror SMF property set
to true).
As a result, your package server now has all of the package content from
build 111 through the latest /dev build, but only has the package
metadata for build 111.
There are currently no plans that I am aware of to make package metadata
available via rsync.
Cheers,
