[Pulp-list] How to speed up nightly repo syncs on pulp?

[Baird, Josh]

I'm not sure if this will actually speed your sync up, but you should consider scheduling sync's of the repos that you need.  This is a built in function of Pulp:

$ pulp-admin rpm repo sync schedules create --schedule=2013-10-23T00:00Z/P1D --repo-id=rhel6-server-x86_64

Hi All:

     Short Synopsis:
What is the most efficient way to sync nightly repos from RHEL using pulp?

     Long explanation:

We currently have a RH Satellite Server, and would like to replace it with a pulp server.  Each night, we have our Satellite Server perform a nightly sync of all of its channels from RedHat with the command "satellite-sync -email".  This command takes about 20 minutes to run normally.  What is the best way to replicate this on my pulp server?  I have written a ksh script that basically performs a for loop of the command "pulp-admin -u xxxx -p xxxx rpm repo sync run --repo-id=$i" on all of my repos, but this usually takes 2+ hours to run.  Am I running the wrong command, or is there a better way to do this?

thanks,

Paul
