There are three DVDs that comprise SLES Version 11. Only the first DVD must be copied to the
repository. DVD2 contains source files; DVD3 contains the documentation.
Each service pack release for SLES Version 10 has already applied all patches to the installation
media.
To copy vendor-supplied SLES Version 10 OS installation files into the repository, follow these
steps:
1.
Count the number of installation media discs (CD or DVD) that were shipped with the SLES
Version 10 distribution.
2.
For each installation disc, create a sequentially numbered directory under the OS-specific
directory in /opt/repository/os/ in the repository. Follow these guidelines to create
the subdirectory names:
•
Use capital letters for the directory name
•
The directory name must be one of the following: CDn for CD media or DVDn for DVD
media.
•
Even if there is only one installation disk, the subdirectory name must include a number,
for example: CD1 or DVD1.
The following example creates the subdirectories for CD media. In the case of DVD media,
the subdirectories are named DVD1, DVD2, and so on.
# cd /opt/repository/os/SLES11SP1-x64
# mkdir CD1
# mkdir CD2
# mkdir CD3
# mkdir CD4
