Build a Server

For this post, I'm using a fresh install of CentOS 7 provisioned locally using Vagrant.

To do this, you need to have Vagrant installed and a provider, such as VirtualBox.

Here is a sample Vagrantfile you can use: {% highlight ruby %}

-- mode: ruby --

vi: set ft=ruby :

Vagrant.configure("2") do |config| config.vm.box = "centos/7"

config.vm.provision "shell", inline: <<-SHELL yum install -y net-tools lsof wget SHELL

config.vm.provider :virtualbox do |vb| vb.gui = false vb.memory = "512" vb.cpus = "1" end

config.vm.define "pulp-master-01" do |pm1| pm1.vm.network "private_network", ip: "10.0.0.2", netmask: "255.255.255.0" pm1.vm.hostname = "pulp-master-01" pm1.vm.box = "centos/7" end end {% endhighlight %}

Provision

{% highlight bash %} $ vagrant up {% endhighlight %}

{% highlight bash %} $ vagrant ssh pulp-master-01 {% endhighlight %}

Housekeeping

First, let's update our server... {% highlight bash %} $ sudo bash -c "yum update -y && reboot" {% endhighlight %}

Log back in

{% highlight bash %} $ vagrant ssh pulp-master-01 {% endhighlight %}

Install and Configure Pulp

From here, I'll assume you've sudo'd to root.

Install Packages

{% highlight bash %} $ yum install epel-release $ cd /etc/yum.repos.d/ $ wget https://repos.fedorapeople.org/repos/pulp/pulp/rhel-pulp.repo $ yum install -y mongodb-server
qpid-cpp-server qpid-cpp-server-linearstore
pulp-server python-gofer-qpid python2-qpid qpid-tools
pulp-rpm-plugins pulp-puppet-plugins pulp-docker-plugins
pulp-admin-client pulp-rpm-admin-extensions pulp-puppet-admin-extensions pulp-docker-admin-extensions {% endhighlight %}

Generate keys/certs

{% highlight bash %} $ pulp-gen-key-pair $ pulp-gen-ca-certificate {% endhighlight %}

Configure DB

{% highlight bash %} $ sudo -u apache pulp-manage-db {% endhighlight %}

Start Services

{% highlight bash %} for service in mongod qpidd httpd pulp_workers pulp_celerybeat pulp_resource_manager; do systemctl start $service systemctl enable $service done {% endhighlight %}

Admin Client

Configure Pulp Admin Client

Make the [server] section look more like this: {% highlight bash %} [server] host: pulp-master-01 port: 443 api_prefix: /pulp/api verify_ssl: False {% endhighlight %}

Auth the Admin Client

Note: The default password is admin, you should change this!

{% highlight bash %} $ pulp-admin login -u admin {% endhighlight %}

Repos

Create rpm repos

{% highlight bash %} $ pulp-admin rpm repo create --repo-id centos-7-base-os --display-name "CentOS 7 Base OS" --description "Packages for CentOS Base OS" --feed http://mirror.centos.org/centos/7/os/x86_64 --serve-http true --serve-https true $ pulp-admin rpm repo create --repo-id centos-7-base-updates --display-name "CentOS 7 Base Updates" --description "Updated Packages for CentOS Base OS" --feed http://mirror.centos.org/centos/7/updates/x86_64 --serve-http true --serve-https true {% endhighlight %}

Sync rpm repos

{% highlight bash %} $ pulp-admin rpm repo sync run --repo-id centos-7-base-os $ pulp-admin rpm repo sync run --repo-id centos-7-base-updates {% endhighlight %}

Publish

{% highlight bash %} $ pulp-admin rpm repo publish run --repo-id centos-7-base-os $ pulp-admin rpm repo publish run --repo-id centos-7-base-updates {% endhighlight %}

Validate

Time to validate your work.

{% highlight bash %} $ curl http://localhost/pulp/repos {% endhighlight %}
