You could compose a tree, then sync it to something like a basic web server container running on the to-be-upgraded host itself, and then upgrade, while offline, from that web container. This "compose your own" doc works a bit like that: http://www.projectatomic.io/docs/compose-your-own-tree/ Line 63 in the script[1] we use for building the centos atomic host shows the repo-syncing bit: [1] https://github.com/CentOS/sig-atomic-buildscripts/blob/downstream/build_ostree_components.sh Regards, Jason > > Thanks, > > Jim >
