I know, installation server with batteries included... but we've got this
connection to the power grid already up and running and would like to use
that but still use cobbler. :)
Basically, we've got a mirror server already. It has plenty of resources,
and it's set up to automatically sync and so on. I'd therefore like to avoid
duplicating effort (and wasting disk space) in cobbler, and point entirely
at that remote mirror. The "Non-Import (Manual) Workflow" with
--mirror-locally=N seems to get us part way there, but we still need to do
things like "distro add" pointing to local kernel/initrd files
This can't be that uncommon of a use case, can it? I must be missing
something. Is there a secret way to distro add (or better yet "cobbler
import") with the equivalent of --mirror-locally=N?
Thanks!
(Oh, related question: if one is doing --mirror-locally=N, does cobbler
reposync do anything?)
