I would agree with this.

I have my own scripts that deleted the CentOS*.repo, and sl-*.repo from yum.repos.d; didn't really take note that xCAT already did it.

maybe have some kind of test against OSVER, and remove the relevant repos for the specific OSs.

it would probably be better for us to explicitly target the centos public repos, which i presume is the intended target for that command.... anyone disagree?

Subject         [xcat-user] Yum repositories for compute nodes.

------------------------------------------------------------------------

Hi

We like to have several different repositories configured for our
compute nodes.

The way we are managing this at the moment is by using a synclist to set
up yum.repos.d how we want it, and commenting out the line:

result=`rm /etc/yum.repos.d/*.repo 2>&1`

from the script postscripts/ospkgs. Otherwise updatenode removes our
modified repositories.

Is there a better way of doing what we want to do, ie a way that doesn't
require modification to xCAT?

Does anyone else do anything similar?
