CentOS repository patching

[Snehal Mehar]

Hello,

I need help with setting up Centos client-server with centos repository URL. It should add a repository URL to the client-server and patch to the next available version identifying the existing os version. 

I have created a role but the patching task gets failed because of no mirrors found. Any help here would be appreciated. 

===========================================================================================================================

main.yml code:

- name: Perform Patch

  include_tasks: centos.yml

  when: ansible_distribution == "CentOS"

- name: Perform Patch

  include_tasks: redhat.yml

  when: ansible_distribution == "RedHat"

- name: Perform Patch

  include_tasks: ubuntu.yml

  when: ansible_distribution == "Ubuntu" or ansible_distribution == "Debian"

- name: Perform Patch

  include_tasks: suse.yml

  when: ansible_distribution == "openSUSE Leap"

==================================================================================================================================================

centos.yml code: 

  - name: Enable centos repo in yum

    template:

      src: centos.repo.j2

      dest: /etc/yum.repos.d/CentOS-Base.repo

  - name: Check Dist Version

    shell: cat /etc/redhat-release

    register: response

    debug: msg="{{ ansible_distribution_version}}"

  - name: Distribution major version

  - name: Upgrade all installed packages for CentOS

    yum:

      name: "*"

      state: latest

    when: ansible_distribution == "CentOS"

Centos URL:

http://mirror.centos.org/centos/7/

Thanks,

This sounds like the repo file template isn't constructed properly. 

Did you compare the resulting repo file with one that you know works on another server?

Thank you Dick for your reply. I was able to solve it when I added extra repo configuration in the centos.repo.j2 file. See below...

==================================================================================================================

[base]
name = CentOS-Base
baseurl = http://mirror.centos.org/{{ ansible_distribution | lower }}/{{ ansible_distribution_major_version }}/os/{{ ansible_architecture }}

gpgkey = file:///etc/pki/rpm-gpg/RPM-GPG-KEY-CentOS-7
gpgcheck = 1
enabled = 1

[updates]
name = CentOS-Updates

baseurl = http://mirror.centos.org/{{ ansible_distribution | lower }}/{{ ansible_distribution_major_version }}/updates/{{ ansible_architecture }}
gpgkey = file:///etc/pki/rpm-gpg/RPM-GPG-KEY-CentOS-7
gpgcheck = 1
enabled = 1

[extras]
name = CentOS-Extras
baseurl = http://mirror.centos.org/{{ ansible_distribution | lower }}/{{ ansible_distribution_major_version }}/extras/{{ ansible_architecture }}

gpgkey = file:///etc/pki/rpm-gpg/RPM-GPG-KEY-CentOS-7
gpgcheck = 1
enabled = 1

[centosplus]
name = CentOS-Plus
baseurl = http://mirror.centos.org/{{ ansible_distribution | lower }}/{{ ansible_distribution_major_version }}/centosplus/{{ ansible_architecture }}

gpgkey = file:///etc/pki/rpm-gpg/RPM-GPG-KEY-CentOS-7
gpgcheck = 1
enabled = 1

Thanks,

Snehal
