Publish this mirror on a internal website, for example link it
to: /var/www/html/repo/Centos (which means it will be visible on
http://reposerver/repo/Centos , where reposerver resolves to the local
web server.
Then modify the file /etc/yum.repos.d/Centos-Base, comment out the
mirrorlist entry and add one like:
#mirrorlist=http://mirrorlist.centos.org/?release=$releasever&arch$basearch&repo=os
baseurl=http://reposerver/repo/CentOS/$releasever/os/$basearch/
(for base)
Do this for every repository that you mirror.
Place this updated file in /etc/yum.repos.d/ on all your CentOS servers
and the server will update from it for yum.
