OCI: Ignore Private Repositories in OSMS

Applies to:

Oracle Cloud Infrastructure - Version N/A and later

Linux x86-64

Goal:

This document outlines the steps required for OSMS to ignore Private Repositories.

Solution:

You cannot use your own private yum repositories or mirrors with the OS Management service. If you have private yum repositories, you can configure the OS Management service to ignore them, thus preventing the OS Management Service Agent plugin from overwriting the settings for those repositories.

To configure OS Management to ignore private repositories:

1.     Log in to your instance.

2.     Create a file named ignored_repos.conf in the following directory:

/etc/oracle-cloud-agent/plugins/osms
