Yum failed to execute - Scenario 2


The following scenario describes an error in the execution of the yum file, as well as steps to troubleshoot the issue.

Error Message

Could not find repodata.tar.gz corresponding to OsArch: ‘[ARCH]' in the catalog ( at location '//<repo>/catalog_XXX/[ARCH]/repodata.tar.gz')

Description

This error message indicates that the Catalog Job did not succeed at a target where the repodata.tar.gz file was not generated. As a result, the Analysis Job was run against an invalid target whose OS level or architecture did not match. This problem might be caused by an issue on the Repo Server.

Troubleshooting

To fix this error, perform the following:

  1. Run the Catalog Update Job again, and ensure that it ran successfully at all targets.
  2. Validate that the target is correct by right-clicking and verifying the OS information.
  3. Validate the ACLs on the Repo server.

Logs to collect

  • Patch Analysis Job log
  • Catalog Update Job log

From the target

  • rscd.log
  • agentinfo.log

From the Repo server
