I tried export_distributor, but I found it to be too slow for my needs.
I need to export ALL my repos, and I have about 800. Exporting causes many
RPMs to be replicated, so the storage requirements explode for me.
I gave up using export_distributor. Instead, I now run pulp inside a
virtual machine and I copy the whole virtual machine. This method avoids
RPM replication, and has proved to be much faster than export_distributor.

As you probably know, we are in the process of designing a tool which will
provide a way to migrate from Pulp 2 to Pulp 3, so we will ask you for
feedback every now and then.
Export distributor [0] is used for generating ISO images which can contain
one or more RPM or File (ISO plugin in Pulp 2 terms) repositories in it.
This distributor is also used to export a repository into a specific
directory on a filesystem.
Please, let us know if you use export_distributor:
0. Do you use Pulp directly or through Katello? This thread is more
relevant for those who use Pulp directly.
1. What is the scale? E.g. "I use it for 10% of all my repositories, ~50
repositories."
2. Do you export into an ISO or to a directory? Or both?
3. Is it important that export_distributors and their configuration are
migrated to Pulp3? E.g. "It would be nice-to-have, not critical, I export
very few repositories."
Thank you,
Tanya
