Catalogs, Bundles, and Packages
Each bundle and package you want to mirror must be contained in a catalog on the remote
server, so Catalog is the only item necessary to mirror a catalog, bundle, or package. A
configuration file can have multiple Catalog elements, and each catalog you want to mirror
must have its own entry.
<Catalog>
<Name>Red Carpet 2</Name>
<LocalName>Red Carpet 2</LocalName>
<Target>sles-9-i586</Target>
<Package>lib.*</Package>
</Catalog>
Local Name - Name of the catalog you want the mirrored software placed in. If no Local
Name is specified, the catalog name from the source server is used. The local name for the
catalog should not be same as that reserved for the <catalogname>-patches folder.
Folder - Specifies the eDir folder (such as /folder1/folder2) where bundles and
catalogs are created and updated. If not specified, the catalogs and bundles are created and
updated in the /zlmmirror folder.
Target - Restricts the mirroring operation on the catalog to packages and patches that support
the specified target platforms. If the target is not specified, packages for all platforms are
mirrored. This element can be specified multiple times, and can contain either a target name or
a regular expression string for matching target names. For example, to include targets
beginning with sles such as sles-9-i586, use the regular expression <Target>sles.*</Target>.
ExcludeTarget - Same as Target, except packages and patches supporting the specified target
platforms are excluded. ExcludeTarget is performed after Target, so platforms appearing in a
Target and ExcludeTarget are ultimately excluded. For example, to exclude targets that end
with i586 such as sles-9-i586, use the regular expression <ExcludeTarget>.*i586</
ExcludeTarget>.
Bundle - Restricts the mirroring operation on the catalog to the specified bundles. If the bundle
is not specified, all bundles are mirrored. This option is valid only for ZLM and YaST source
servers. It can be specified multiple times, and can contain either a bundle name or a regular
expression string for matching bundle names. See the note below about regular expressions for
more information.
LocalBundleName - Renames the bundle name locally.This is applicable only for the RCE,
NU, and RHN services in which a catalog has only one bundle on the remote server. If you
specify <LocalBundleName>, you must not specify the <Bundle> tag. This tag is not
applicable when you mirror OES from the RCE service with more than one bundle per catalog.
ExcludeBundle - Same as Bundle, except packages and patches contained in the specified
bundle or bundles are excluded. This option is valid only for ZLM and YaST source servers,
can be specified multiple times, and can contain either a bundle name or a regular expression
string for matching bundle names. ExcludeBundle is performed after Bundle, so bundles
appearing in a Bundle and ExcludeBundle are ultimately excluded. See the note below about
regular expressions for more information.
Package - Restricts the mirroring operation on the catalog to the specified packages. If the
package is not specified, all packages are mirrored. This option can be specified multiple times,
and can contain either a package name or a regular expression string for matching package
