Specifications

Using the repository data:

    Once the repository image has been made available, whether by mounting
    an image or copying the data to a specific location, it can be served to
    clients using pkg.depotd(1m).  Before doing so, you will need to alter
    the provided repository configuration template to match your environment.

    First, configure pkg.depotd(1m) using SMF (where <data_source> is the
    full path to where the 'repo' directory is located, such as '/mnt' or
    <destination> from the examples in section 2.2):

        svccfg -s application/pkg/server setprop 
            pkg/inst_root=<data_source>/repo
        svccfg -s application/pkg/server setprop pkg/readonly=true

    By default, pkg.depotd(1m) will listen for connections on port 80.  You
    can change this by executing the following command:

        svccfg -s application/pkg/server setprop pkg/port=<port_number>

    You may also wish to review the man page for pkg.depotd(1m) for additional
    settings that may need to be changed based on your needs.

    Next, copy the <data_source>/repo/cfg_cache file to a new, permanent
    location of your choice that is accessible by the root user on system
    startup.  As an example:

        cp <data_source>/repo/cfg_cache /etc/0906_cfg_cache

    Next, configure the pkg.depotd(1m) service to use the new configuration
    file:

        svccfg -s application/pkg/server setprop 
            pkg/cfg_file=<path_to_your_cfg_cache>

    Then, using a text editor of your choice, change the following line in
    the above file:

        origins = http://pkg.opensolaris.org/release

    Replace everything after ' = ', to the end of the line, with the
    network-accessible hostname of the system that the depot server will be
    hosted on as follows (if you changed the port number above, you would
    include it using :<port_number>, after '.com' in the example below): 

        origins = http://example.com/

    There are additional values within the file that you may wish to customize
    to provide additional information to packaging clients.  Please see "pydoc
    pkg.client.publisher" in the "class Repository" section for an explanation
    of these properties.

    pkg.depotd(1m) can now be started and used for serving packages to pkg(5)
    clients by refreshing the corresponding SMF service configuration and
    enabling the service:

        svcadm refresh application/pkg/server
        svcadm enable application/pkg/server

    To set clients to use only this depot server to retrieve package content
    for the OpenSolaris 2009.06 release, execute the following command on each
    client (where <origin> is the value you provided for 'origins' above):

        pkg set-publisher -O <origin> opensolaris.org

    Alternatively, clients may be configured to use the depot server as a
    mirror instead, allowing them to retrieve newer packages that may be
    available while still accelerating operations for package content found
    on your depot server (where <origin> is the value you provided for
    'origins' above) or to increase aggregate resources available to clients
    during packaging operations:

        pkg set-publisher -m <origin> opensolaris.org

    Please note that you should only use this depot as an origin or a mirror
    on each system.
