How to create local repository

Creating local repository from an ISO images

mount -o loop /home/elf/isos/CentOS-6.0-x86_64-bin-DVD1.iso /mnt/cdmedia
rsync -av /mnt/cdmedia/Packages /var/www/html/CentOS-6.0/x86_64/.
rsync -av /mnt/cdmedia/repodata /var/www/html/CentOS-6.0/x86_64/.

umount /mnt/cdmedia

createrepo /var/www/html/CentOS-6.0/x86_64/


Mirror repository

rsync from internet

rsync  -avSHP --delete --exclude "local*" --exclude "isos" rsync://example.com/centos/5.4/ /var/www/html/mirror/centos/5.4/

#Example
