      It is telling you that the repo failed. Either your repo data is wrong or the repo has gone down.

        Ehm… it's the standard CentOS 7 base repo!
        This one:

        [base]
        name=CentOS-$releasever - Base
        mirrorlist=http://mirrorlist.centos.org/?release=$releasever&arch=$basearch&repo=os&infra=$infra
        enabled=1
        exclude=kernel kernel-abi-whitelists kernel-debug kernel-debug-devel kernel-devel kernel-doc kernel-tools kernel-tools-libs kernel-tools-libs-devel linux-firmware biosdevname centos-release systemd* stunnel kexec-tools ocaml*
        gpgcheck=1
        gpgkey=file:///etc/pki/rpm-gpg/RPM-GPG-KEY-CentOS-7

        And of course it's working on a standard CentOS 7!

            It seems to me that it's working…
            [[email protected] ~]# ping google.it

            @scottalanmiller, have you try to use yum on any new XS7 installation? Try it yourself, I think that there's something wrong with the default setup…

              I'm running into this exact issue. I came back here while searching for answers.

                Our cluster was scheduled to be up and running yesterday, but I've heard no news on it yet. So sadly have not been able to look into doing any testing, yet.

                  Right now I can't get HA-Lizard installed because I can't download the drbd packages. I've been messing with all the *.repo files, but no joy so far.

                    Same repo error as above?

                      Poking at it some more and it looks like there is something sideways about the $releasever variable in the /etc/yum.repos.d/CentOS.* The resulting URL is http://mirror.centos.org/centos/7-2.1511.el7.centos.2.10/os/x86_64/repodata/repomd.xml.

                      The one that I get manually navigating is: http://mirror.centos.org/centos/7.2.1511/os/x86_64/repodata/repomd.xml

                        That's what I have been thinking. Autodetecting repos are very fragile and I see them fail all of the time. Put in a static, direct link and I bet it will work just fine.

                          I replaced the references in CentOS-Base.repo with 7.2.1511 and that took away some of the errors, but it still failed. Looks like I'll need to update the other *.repo files unless there is a way to change what is going into the $releasever variable.

                            cat /etc/redhat-release

                              XenServer release 7.0.0-125380c (xenenterprise)
                              

                              I get the same output from /etc/centos-release which is what the distroverpkg variable in yum.conf references.

                                Yup, there is the issue. The repos don't like that different name than what they handle.

                                  Well, altering the distroverpkg to distroverpkg=7.2.1511 isn't fixing anything. Now $releasever is not expanding.

                                    Try this instead: centos-release

                                    That is what is in working CentOS 7 variable for that.

                                        It said that? Where did it give that error?

                                            You dont' run it as a command, you put it into the variable that you mentioned 🙂
