Description Pradeep Kilambi 2011-02-02 19:30:07 UTC

Description of problem:

pulp yum repo syncs download the metadata as the first step. Which sets up the stage for rest of the content fetch. For resyncs and pulling updates, the new metadata will need to be stored in a temp directory until the entire sync is complete before serving the new updated metadata.

Test plan

<prad> basically when you do a resync .. do a watch on /var/lib/pulp/repos/<repo-path>/
<preethi> ok
<prad> you'll see a repodata.new for a while and it will disappear
<prad> and the repodata directory will hvae that new info upon completion
<prad> ideally this is how you would test:
<prad> 1. subscribe your client to that repo
<prad> 2. perform yum operations on packages that are in source repo but not on pulp repo
<prad> so basically you need an update or a new package when you do resync
<preethi> ok
<prad> this should not succeed until the sync fails
<prad> as the new metadata is still in temp location
