Upgrading to Red Hat Enterprise Linux7 with iso media on nfs server failed with missing packages
Issue
- I used redhat-upgrade-tool to upgrade from Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6.6 into Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7.
- My iso file is on a nfs server, so I mounted it on /mnt and run "redhat-upgrade-tool --iso /mnt/rhel7.iso"
- Reboot and started the upgrade, but it failed with the following many errors.
upgrade[1540]: Warning: failed to open file /sysroot/var/lib/system-upgrade/media/Packages/`package-name`
upgrade[1540]: Warning: couldn't add media/Packages/`package-name` to the transaction
Environment
