I am also looking for a way to avoid syncing the source RPMs from the Oracle Linux upstream repo, as Brian mentioned. As a workaround, I tried removing the SRPMs from my repo following the sync using " pulp-admin rpm repo remove srpm --repo-id=ol5-x86_64 -a 20130901", but that had no effect (even though " pulp-admin rpm repo content srpm --repo-id=ol5-x86_64 -a 20130901 " showed me the packages).

Here are some use cases that I can imagine. - Users that don't require X Windows for any of their Linux systems would prefer not to sync anything that depends on X Windows. These could be excluded/blacklisted based on package names, simple pattern matching, regex, or yum package groups. - Some repositories, such as OracleLinux </div> <<a moz-do-not-send="true" href="http://public-yum.oracle.com/repo/OracleLinux/OL6/latest/x86_64/" target="_blank">http://public-yum.oracle.com/repo/OracleLinux/OL6/latest/x86_64/</a>> <div> include the *.src.rpm in the same repo directory, which makes syncing the entire repository *much* larger. - Users that only want to sync a select few packages from a repository, and exclude the rest.

I had read an interesting USENIX paper[1] and slidedeck[2] last year about using Pulp to manage yum repositories for enterprise environments, and had hoped to implement something similar. However, it appears that the features they depend on were only available in Pulp v1. The basic workflow is something like this: 1) Sync all updates from upstream to "live" repo (probably daily) 2) Sync all "non-impactful" updates from "live" (filter out kernel and any other pkgs that we identify as needing more testing) to "unstable" repo (probably weekly - so pkgs are 1 week old before they appear) 3) Sync all "non-impactful" updates from "unstable" after they have been there for a certain time period (weekly or monthly) to "stable" repo 4) Don't point any servers to the "live" repo 5) Point non-production servers to "unstable" repo 6) Point production servers to "stable" repo 7) Manually promote "impactful" packages to "unstable" for testing 8) Manually promote "impactful" packages to "stable" after having been tested As best I can tell, the solution described in the paper is based on "Sync filters", which don't seem to be available in Pulp v2. So I think the only way to implement something like this would be to use the "copy" feature, which I don't believe can be scheduled. Is it possible to implement this sort of workflow in Pulp v2?

Hi Brian, We don't currently support this feature, but we have talked about it before and we are interested in the possibility of supporting something like this. It would be interesting to use to know your use case, as there is some difficulty in coming up with a nice way to express what should be included or excluded from the CLI. You mention package groups, which makes me also think of package categories.
