yes, you can use online repo.

In the http://xcat.org/download.html,  there are links to xcat repo file.
https://xcat.org/files/xcat/repos/yum/2.14/xcat-core/xcat-core.repo


Here is another example:

# cat xcat-core.repo
[xcat-core]
name=xcat-core
baseurl=http://xcat.org/files/xcat/repos/yum/devel/core-snap
enabled=1
gpgcheck=0

Subject:        [xcat-user] Using online repos with xCAT



Hello All,

The references I see to creating repos (base, or updates) on the xCAT
management node all indicate that only local repos are supported (e.g.
"baseurl=file:///......").

Is there any way to use actual online repos with xCAT? If not, how can one
sensibly update the OS on a regular basis? (seems that "reposync" can be
used and just dump the latest update RPMs to a specific directory, then
update that repo?)

BTW: I am using RHEL7. Also, I am using an x86 management node with ppc64le
compute nodes, and xcat 2.14.2.

Thanks,
  Keith
