Hi, William, What does the content mirror actually do? Does it mean if accessing the default repo is slow (Like we here accessing pkg.opensolaris.org, often return time out), then AI will be automatically re-directed to mirror repo to get packages (not meta data)?
So far, I see "http://ipkg.east.sun.com:8000/"; is working in mirror mode, I can use it for testing. And my understanding is correct or wrong for Additional repo? - If a given package in manifest is not found in default repo, it will look for it in additional repo. Great Thanks Jeffrey William Schumann ??: > 6610 AI does not recognize additional IPS repository > 6435 AI should support installation from IPS content mirror > > http://cr.opensolaris.org/~wmsch/bug-6610/ > http://defect.opensolaris.org/bz/show_bug.cgi?id=6610 > http://defect.opensolaris.org/bz/show_bug.cgi?id=6435 > > Since these are already coded in TM and are basically a list of IPS > initialization actions for tm_perform_transfer(), fixes are combined. > > Made variable list of actions to Transfer Module, which already supports > additional authorities and mirrors > > Commands are launched from TM: > pkg image-create ... > add alternate authority: > pkg -R /a set-authority -O <url> --no-refresh <authority> > specify mirror for authority: > pkg -R /a set-authority -m <mirror URL> --no-refresh <authority> > > Tested: > simple primary authority > primary authority with mirror > primary authority with alternate authority > primary authority with mirror and alternate authority > primary authority with mirror and alternate authority with alternate mirror > primary authority and alternate authority with alternate mirror > > pkg -R /a authority -a > reflected the changes, except that it doesn't seem to display the > mirror.
