3.2.5 Mirroring Custom Catalogs
It is possible to mirror catalogs that are not available at the Novell Customer Center
—custom catalogs— using SMT. Use the smt-setup-custom-catalogs script
for this purpose. Custom catalogs can also be deleted.
To set up a custom catalog to be available through SMT, follow these steps:
1 If you do not know the ID of the product the new catalogs should belong to, use
2 Run the smt-setup-custom-catalogs --productid product_id
NOTE: Mirroring Unsigned Catalogs
In its default configuration, SUSE Linux Enterprise 10 does not allow the use
of unsigned repositories. Therefore, if you want to mirror unsigned repositories
and use them on client machines, you have to allow this explicitly by executing
the following command on the client machines:
rug set security-level checksum
To remove an already set custom catalog from the SMT database, use
smt-setup-custom-catalogs --delete ID, where ID represents the ID
of the catalog to be removed.

smt-list-products to get the ID. For the description of the
smt-list-products, see
--name catalog_name --exturl catalog_url command, where
product_id is the ID of the product the catalog belongs to, catalog_name
represents the name of the catalog and catalog_url is the URL the catalog
is available at. In case the added catalog should be available for more than one
product, specify the IDs of all products that should use the added catalog.
For example, to set My Catalog available at
http://example.com/My_Catalog to the products with the IDs 423,
424, and 425, use the following command: smt-setup-custom-catalogs
--productid 423 --productid 424 --productid 425 --name
'My_Catalog' --exturl 'http://example.com/My_Catalog'.
