The problem is that yum-presto can be a bit of a memory hog (or, more
accurately, deltarpm is). When you do this in Dec/Jan, you either need
to disable to yum-presto plugin, or, if you're normally short on RAM
and/or have a fast mirror, remove it completely.
ok, good to know
if it is the presto it would not affect the production server
they have no yum-plugins and using only an internal cache-repo
on the same vmware-ESXi-host which is refreshed from /var/cache/yum
on this machine
[root@buildserver:~]$ cat /buildserver/repo-cache.sh
#!/bin/bash
basearch=`uname -i`
releasever=`rpm -q --qf "%{version}\n" fedora-release`
for g in `ls -1b /var/cache/yum`
do
if [ -d /var/cache/yum/$g/packages ]
then
echo "/var/cache/yum/$g/packages/ > /repo/cache/fc$releasever/"
sudo cp --verbose /var/cache/yum/$g/packages/*.rpm /repo/cache/fc$releasever/ 2>
/dev/null
fi
done
sudo chown -R builduser:builduser /repo/cache/fc$releasever/
sudo chmod -R 755 /repo/cache/fc$releasever/
