PLAY RECAP **********************************************************************************************************************************************
yumserver01 : ok=1 changed=0 unreachable=0 failed=1
Possible causes
The original rpm files could be malformed, so even though the reposync client is successfully downloading whatever the server provided, the rpm does not match the checksum in the yum metadata files.
Fix #1
- Run the command manually to learn the whole list. Save it down to a file.
# time /usr/bin/reposync --source --repoid=EL7 -m --download-metadata --download_path="/var/www/html/yum/EL/EL7_Mirror"

- On the reposync client delete or move to a temp directory the failed files. You could use a shell script similar to the following.
#!/bin/sh
INFILE=/root/bad.in
INDIR=/var/www/html/yum/EL/EL7_Mirror/EL7
OUTDIR=/root/orig/
mkdir -p "${OUTDIR}"
find $(
for word in $( cat "${INFILE}" ) ;
do
find "${INDIR}" -name "${word}*rpm"
done
) -print -exec mv {} "${OUTDIR}" \;
- On the repo server, manually download the files. You could modify the input file to have the upstream URLs.
bad.in.url

- Rerun the reposync manually and make sure it works.
