Issue/Introduction

OPMS 10.5 install I went through the logs and found a more descriptive error.

(Date) Puppet (err): Could not update: Execution of '/bin/yum -d 0 -e 0 -y install asm-smartpop-cbot' returned 1: Error downloading packages:

  asm-smartpop-cbot-10.4.0-1.x86_64: [Errno 256] No more mirrors to try.

Environment

Release : 10.5

Component : APMS OPMS

Cause

Caused by failed deployment of rpm packages to the repo server - packages copied but  the repodata xml files were not updated.

The checksum in the repo xml were incorrect and package was not trusted. Seems that it was caused by timeout - the script process was interrupted

Resolution

- The timeout was raised from 120 seconds to 300 seconds. 

- The repo xmls with the correct checksums were uploaded to the repo server.

- Do a yum clean ll to clean cache and repos.

 

Then, deployment script was executed again and it succeeded.

Additional Information

Note that you would get a similar error if any opms has an incorrect checksum.
