I am managing a RHEL 6 yum repo, the repo source files were just a local copy from the disk ISO , and for some reason I need to replace a few RPM package in this repo by new version of RPMs, I've tried: 1: put new RPM package in Packages dir 2: re-create the repo by "createrepo"

but any client when running yum install, it still got the old version of RPM, how I can get it work as expected?

use the command :

createrepo --update

Sometimes you have a lot of packages in your repository and regenerating the meta data for each package when only a few packages have been added or changed is just too time consuming. This is where --update comes in handy. You run createrepo just like you did before but you pass the --update flag to it. Like this: createrepo --update /srv/my/repo
