[Pulp-list] RHEL repo version lock using pulp

[Venkataramana Bora]

Thanks a lot  Aaron and Kodak for your quick reply. I will post here after
trying these steps. By following this , Hope we still have  latest RHEL7.4
security updates only using a that Pulp repo. Please let us know if there
is any further useful info.

Once again Thank you and Pulp team.

Replied earlier from my work address but I think it may be blocked.
Anyways ...

You could do what Kodiak suggests but that will involve syncing another set
of repositories.

An alternative would be to create a content view pinned to the day before
RHEL 7.5 was released; 04/09/2018 as RHEL 7.5 was released 04/10/2018.  Do
that for all required RHEL 7 repositories and add them to a CCV and call it
done.

You could also look at subscription-manager on the managed client-side and
configure the pin-to-release to 7.4 and see how that works.  I've never
done that but mainly because I always worry someone might come behind me
and unset it ...

To lock to 7.4, you'd want to sync 7.4 CDN channels to dedicated 7.4 Pulp
repos.  Use 'rct cat-cert' to look for 7.4 specific channels to mirror.

  Hi Team, would like to know, on Pulp servers is there any possibility to
  create a specific version (say RHEL 7.4) only repository using
  cdn.redhat.com feed? Right now we are using below Redhat 7 feeds our pulp
  servers , but that is updating to latest RHEL7.6 from 7.4 We have a
  requirement now where we need to have RHEL7.4 repo that should not be
  updated to latest RHEL7.x but we like to have latest RHEL7.4 security
  updates only using a that Pulp repo. Kindly please let us know if there
  is any possibility of specific version lock pulp repo or not. Thanks a
  lot in advance !

  Pulp_repo rhel-7-server-rpms-x86_64 feed: '
  https://cdn.redhat.com/content/dist/rhel/server/7/7Server/x86_64/os'.
  pulp_repo rhel-7-server-extras-rpms-x86_64 feed:
  'https://cdn.redhat.com/content/dist/rhel/server/7/7Server/x86_64/extras/os'

  pulp_repo rhel-7-server-optional-rpms-x86_64 feed:'
  https://cdn.redhat.com/content/dist/rhel/server/7/7Server/x86_64/optional/os
  '


  Our Pulp slave servers are with version pulp-server-2.11.2-1.el6 and
  master Pulp server is 2.16.
