My goal was to use a repository accessible to the MN (EPEL) without the hassle 
of downloading the packages I need from EPEL along with their dependencies and 
maintaing a local repo for use with otherpkgs. Seems like more of a hassle than 
simply being able to point to the EPEL repo in a config file.

For example, with a statful install, I can include additional repos that may 
not be on the MN, but are accessible to the node I'm installing. I'm looking 
for a way to do this same thing with a stateless install. I see where the yum 
command in genimage calls to /tmp/genimage.PID.conf. This file is merely a yum 
repo config. How would I go about getting the EPEL info there?

Christian,

Just to follow up ... The idea is that the pkglist will handle packages 
provided on the base OS and otherpkglist will handle things that are manually 
added.
Keeping those separate will make it easier to manage.  If something goes wrong 
with the files in /install/<os> you can delete the directory and re-run copycds.

Thanks,
Victor

It's not replicate, any packages downloaded from outside should use additional 
repo. That's easy to manage.

I have that working. Is it possible to just use the existing repo rather than 
replicating it on the management node?

If you want to use Epel at local, you should download the packages to local and 
using otherpkgs to install.

I have a MN running 2.11 with latest deps. Trying to add EPEL repo to a 
stateless image. The MN is configured to see EPEL, but it's not local - I 
haven't run copycds on anything
to get the EPEL repo. Is there another way to call to it?







Whe n I include a package from the EPEL repo in the profile.pkglist it is 
skipped. The only way I can get it to install is via otherpkgs.
