Enabling Memset Repos in CentOS 7 on Dedicated Servers

Applies To: DEDICATED CENTOS

By default the Repositories in use on a CentOS 7 Dedicated Server were configured to use the official CentOS repositories.

If you would like to enable the Memset Repositories for use for all future Package Updates, then this can be enabled quite simply.

From an SSH Session with suitable privileges, complete the following steps;

Rename the "CentOS-Base.repo" file;

mv /etc/yum.repos.d/CentOS-Base.repo /etc/yum.repos.d/CentOS-Base.repo.DISABLED

BASH

Rename the Memset Repos File;

mv /etc/yum.repos.d/CentOS-Memset.repo.DISABLED /etc/yum.repos.d/CentOS-Memset.repo

BASH

Using a text editor like "vi" or "nano" edit the "CentOS-Memset.repo" file;

nano /etc/yum.repos.d/CentOS-Memset.repo

BASH

Locate the "enabled=0" lines within "CentOS-Memset.repo" and change the value from "0" to "1" to enable the individual repos in the file as required...

enabled=1

TEXT

Now run the below commands to update the yum Repositories and Cache.

yum clean all
yum makecache fast

BASH
