linux - multiarch reposync on redhat -


question here downloading rh repos. have licensed redhat 32 bit system. automatically pulls rhn 32 bit repo using reposync. however, trying pull 64 bit repository on same system. not want burden myself adding 64 bit system. no matter try rh giving me:

*this system receiving updates rhn classic or rhn satellite. ftp://ftp.redhat.com/pub/redhat/linux/enterprise/5server/en/os/x86_64/debuginfo/repodata/repomd.xml: [errno 4] ioerror: [errno ftp error] timed out trying other mirror. error: cannot retrieve repository metadata (repomd.xml) repository: rhel-debuginfo64. please verify path , try again*

this after took 32 bit repo in /etc/yum.repos.d/* , added new repo modifying old address , adding "x86_64" seen above error.

to make things bit more clear... i'm not trying update 32bit system 64 bit rh packages. i'm trying reposync or download 32bit , 64bit rh repositories on 32 bit system.

does have advice on doing reposync on both 32 bit , 64 bit rh repositories on single rh system?

thanks!

you use mrepo.

redhat allows machines subscribe 1 channel (and child channels) on rhn, means can't updates different architectures/os versions single machine. circumvent this, can create "fake" machine identities gensystemid (included in mrepo) use rhnget (also included in mrepo) generated identities fetch content multipe channels. details procedure can found here.
