Well, after reviewing what James said and what you say, I see from using
'lvdisplay' that my logical volume named /dev/vg_cobbler1/lv_root is
only 50 GiB and it is mounted on / and is all used up, and that is where
both /var and /opt live, so I am in the process of using 'lvresize' and
'resize2fs' to extend lv_root.
When I originally installed CentOS 6.2 I simply accepted all the
partitioning defaults, and didn't think to study the cobbler wiki first
to check on any operating system installation requirements. Now I'm a
little wiser.
I'm waiting for 'resize2fs' to finish, then I will try to redo 'cobbler
reposync'.
Thanks everyone for catching my errors and for the excellent guidance.
Bob

I now think that 'cobbler reposync' has bugs, at least in the github
version of the code.
Consider these messages which appear in /var/log/messages:

[not sure if the above are meaningful to this problem, however I
started my 'cobbler reposync' at about this time]
No, that has nothing to do with cobbler. The abrt daemon is logging
crash dumps, but /var is probably full so it's reporting it. That
could probably be the same issue you're having with reposync, since
everything goes to /var/www/cobbler.
Oh! I understand now. /var on my box is indeed full. I guess I need to look for
some way to resize var upwards. Maybe gparted understands how to work with LVM.
If not, then I guess I need to reinstall CentOS 6.2 but modify the partition
layout, and start again. I have no problem giving /var a lot of space.
I will see what I can do...
