Also, I don't like this single point of failure. If we come in to do maintenance, and the update service is offline, there are no alternative mirrors I am aware of. --Donald
In the past, we would do a "yum --downloadonly -y update" before a planned maintenance window so that all of the packages would be local to the box that needed to be patched. You have to have the yum-plugin-downloadonly package installed for that to work.
Another alternative is to buy the Satellite service and then you have a local version of RHN.
