This means we are defining an epoch time in the past and building the child repo with packages built since that time eg:<o:p></o:p> <o:p> </o:p> pulp-admin rpm repo copy all --from-repo-id main-repo --to-repo-id child-repo --gt "build_time=<historical epoch time>" --recursive <o:p></o:p> <o:p> </o:p> We need the child repo to contain the errata as well as category information but NOT SRPMS. We are keen to know if it is considered better to perhaps ‘copy all’ then clean up the redundant components such as the SRPMs from the child repo, or if we should run successive commands to ‘copy rpm’, ‘copy errata’, ‘copy category’ to reach the same goal. <o:p></o:p> <o:p> </o:p> Which approach would be better from the mongodb point of view since I know MongoDB is prone to fragmentation and in my mind to copy all to then remove components afterwards could present fragmentation issues going forward. Are there any other issues that could arise chosing one approach over another . Perhaps mongodb has not shown any issues in regards of data storage before.<o:p></o:p> <o:p> </o:p> Welcome your comments on this.<o:p></o:p> Regards<o:p></o:p> <o:p> </o:p> <o:p> </o:p> <table class="MsoNormalTable" border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0" width="100%" style="width:100.0%"> <tbody> <tr> <td valign="bottom" style="padding:0cm 0cm 0cm 0cm"> Steve Bremner | Linux Engineer | Group Technology & Engineering<o:p></o:p> </td> </tr> <tr> <td style="padding:0cm 0cm 0cm 0cm"></td> </tr> <tr> <td style="padding:0cm 0cm 0cm 0cm"> The Walbrook Building<o:p></o:p> 25 Walbrook| London EC4N 8AF | United Kingdom<o:p></o:p> </td> </tr> </tbody> </table> <o:p> </o:p> <table class="MsoNormalTable" border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0" width="96%" style="width:96.86%"> <tbody> <tr> <td style="padding:0cm 0cm 0cm 0cm"> <img width="159" height="69" id="Picture_x0020_1" src="cid:image001.png@01D1E3FD.B07C1D10" alt="cid:image001.png@01CF5FC7.C8090A40"><o:p></o:p> </td> </tr> <tr> <td style="border:none;border-bottom:solid white 6.0pt;padding:0cm 0cm 0cm 0cm"> <a href="http://www.worldpay.com/" target="_blank">worldpay.com</a><o:p></o:p> </td> </tr> <tr> <td style="padding:0cm 0cm 0cm 0cm"> Connect with us:<o:p></o:p> </td> </tr> <tr> <td style="padding:0cm 0cm 0cm 0cm"> <table class="MsoNormalTable" border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0"> <tbody> <tr> <td width="35" style="width:26.25pt;padding:0cm 0cm 0cm 0cm"> <a href="http://www.facebook.com/Worldpay"><img border="0" width="30" height="30" id="Picture_x0020_2" src="cid:image002.png@01D1E3FD.B07C1D10" alt="cid:image002.png@01CF5FC7.C8090A40"></a><o:p></o:p> </td> <td width="35" style="width:26.25pt;padding:0cm 0cm 0cm 0cm"> <a href="http://www.linkedin.com/company/Worldpay-"><img border="0" width="30" height="30" id="Picture_x0020_3" src="cid:image003.png@01D1E3FD.B07C1D10" alt="cid:image003.png@01CF5FC7.C8090A40"></a><o:p></o:p> </td> <td width="35" style="width:26.25pt;padding:0cm 0cm 0cm 0cm"> <a href="https://twitter.com/Worldpay"><img border="0" width="30" height="30" id="Picture_x0020_4" src="cid:image004.png@01D1E3FD.B07C1D10" alt="cid:image004.png@01CF5FC7.C8090A40"></a><o:p></o:p> </td> <td width="35" style="width:26.25pt;padding:0cm 0cm 0cm 0cm"> <a href="http://www.youtube.com/user/WorldpayGlobal"><img border="0" width="30" height="30" id="Picture_x0020_5" src="cid:image005.png@01D1E3FD.B07C1D10" alt="cid:image005.png@01CF5FC7.C8090A40"></a><o:p></o:p> </td> </tr> </tbody> </table> </td> </tr> </tbody> </table> <o:p> </o:p> <o:p> </o:p> </div> <pre> This e-mail and any attachments are confidential, intended only for the addressee and may be privileged.
