Redhat Offline enviroment with satellite and sync host
Hello,
we got a high security network which is completely offline.
We want to use a Sync Host like described here in the Redhat documentation for Sattelite 6.
I have the following Questions:
- We need the complete Repository not only the main one how much space we need for this ?
- Can we use a nas on the sync host and take the complete nas to our offline site and attach it with NFS to our satellite (so we dont have to export and import the data ) ?
- the offline clients that connect to the offline satellite can use all packages and discover dependencies automatically ?
- Which licenses we need ? My suggest is 1 Sattelite License 1 Enterprise license for the sync hsot and then 1 Enterprise license for every offline client we will connect to the sattelite.
I hope someone can help me.
Greetings

VFS_TSMSM(8) System Administration tools VFS_TSMSM(8)
NAME
vfs_tsmsm - VFS module for handling offline files with Tivoli Storage Manager Space Management
SYNOPSIS
vfs objects = tsmsm
DESCRIPTION
This VFS module is part of the samba(7) suite.
The tsmsm VFS module is an extension for handling offline files with Tivoli Storage Manager Space Management.
It tries to avoid calling expensive DMAPI calls with some heuristics based on the fact that number of blocks reported of a file multiplied
by 512 will be bigger than 'online ratio' of actual size for online (non-migrated) files. If heuristic check fails, the module calls DMAPI
and asks for a specific attribute which is present for offline (migrated) files. If this attribute presents, the file is considered
offline.
This module is not stackable.
OPTIONS
tsmsm:hsm script = [ path to hsm script ]
hsm script should point to a shell script which accepts two arguments: operation and filepath. the tsmsm module only uses "offline" for
operation to set the file under filepath offline.
tsmsm:online ratio = [ number ]
Ratio to check reported size against actual file size. The default value is 0.5.
tsmsm:dmapi attribute = [ attribute-name ]
Name of a DMAPI attribute that is present when a file is offline. The default is "IBMobj" (which is what GPFS uses).
tsmsm:dmapi value = [ value for the DMAPI attribute ]
Value that the DMAPI attribute should have for the file to be considered offline. The default is empty (no value required).
EXAMPLES
A GPFS mount with TSM support can be exported via Samba as follows:
[gpfs_tsm_share]
vfs objects = tsmsm gpfs
path = /test/gpfs_mount
VERSION
This man page is correct for version 4.0 of the Samba suite.
