Thanks Shawn for your quick response!
So that means we can only run this IPS server in "mirror mode"? Can all
client machines use this IPS server as a mirror of 'dev' repo if the
"mirror mode" is turned on?
Thanks,
Ben

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,
