Ok, now I have to take that back.  I was able to figure it out (Google is
your friend), and the answer is the directory structure is laid out just the
same.  You should be able to mirror the entire YOU tree for your
architecture(s) onto a local Linux or UNIX system, and then point YOU to
that server.  It really is just about that easy.

https://you.novell.com/update/s390/update/SUSE-CORE/9/
https://you.novell.com/update/s390/update/SUSE-SLES/9/

Note that you will need to substitute s390x for the s390 if you're running
the 64-bit version.  Note also that these directories will include all the
source RPMs for all the versions of all the packages.  This can take up a
_tremendous_ amount of space.

Getting to the real point, however, I've been having problems with the new
Novell download servers.  They're not as simply set up as the old SUSE
portal server.  You can't just mirror an entire directory with wget.  Or,
I'm just not able to figure out how to do it yet.
