Glad, it's working for you.
BTW, did you download repodata folder also from IBM website ?
Thanks

Hi SANGAMESH,
Thank you for your infomation. First of all , I sucess build local repo and already install any toolbox to AIX7.3.
Already I read this URL ariticle and I sucess build local repo without createrepo command. Also I do not need to dnf_aixtoolbox_local.sh.
I received a few error message when I execute "dnf update" command. However this command was completed. I am able to install any toolbox by "/opt/freeware/bin/dnf install xxxx(toolbox name)" command.
Thank you
Best regards,

Hi Katsumi,
If you download the toolbox iso then you will have dnf_aixtoolbox_local.sh.
Here is the detailed blog on this one
https://community.ibm.com/community/user/power/blogs/sangamesh-mallayya1/2022/02/09/creating-local-repo-with-dnf-and-aix-toolbox-media?CommunityKey=10c1d831-47ee-4d92-a138-b03f7896f7c9
Along with the script from the media we will also have a repodata files required for dnf.
In your case in which step you are running the createrepo command ?
You need to have RPM based Linux system or AIX system to run createrepo.
Here is the detailed article https://developer.ibm.com/tutorials/awb-configuring-dnf-create-local-repos-ibm-aix/

Hi Ranjit,
I heard that the dnf_aixtoolbox_local.sh is not include in IBM site files. It only include in ISO. Also I heard that we can use the install_dnf.sh in dnf_bundle_aix_73.tar.
I will try to build to local repo for AIX toolbox as following steps.
1, Download chunk file of rpm from IBM site. I used wget command on Windows10 for download. In this case you have to install wget. However its file size is too big. (about 25GB) Our environmet use AIX7.3. So, I heve to download as noarch, ppc, and ppc-7.3 . Each chunk file of rpm put on AIX7.3 disks.
2, Download file as dnf_bundle_aix_73.tar.
3, Extracting dnf_bundle_aix_73.tar
4, Execute "install_dnf.sh -d 2 0 2" in dnf_bundle_aix_73.tar.
If you did not set path to aix toolbox then you have to set path as following
PATH=/opt/freeware/bin:$PATH
export PATH
5, Edit /opt/freeware/etc/dnf/dnf.conf as foolowing
baseurl=file:///mnt/RPMS/ppc
baseurl=file:///mnt/RPMS/ppc-7.3
baseurl=file:///mnt/PRMS/noarch
6, Execute "dnf repolist"
It will output 3 repo list as ppc, ppc-7.3 and noarch.
7, Execute "dnf update"
However I do not work yet and result is not know.
Thank you
Best regards

Hi
For my learning, can you let me know what idea/steps you are trying to implement for making local repo without internet/ISO ?
And at which step you are blocked ?
We will review the steps and let you know how to proceed further if building local repo using your steps is feasible ?
Thanks
Ranjit

Hi Sanket,
Thank you for your response. Please check out the one previous thread I posted. I can connect to these URLs from my PC and see the internal structure. Attach a screen capture. From each URL site, I downloaded a chunk of rpm files with the wget command. We will try to build a local repository in our AIX environment.

Thank you

There is no other remote repo than one of AIX toolbox.
I am not sure if you have right connectivity to your local repo and have setup properly.
You can verify it using curl command.

Hi Sanket,
Thank you for your some messages. I would like to build local repo in AIX. Because we environment not able to connect to internet directry.
The dnf.conf file define as following and I tried connect to it.
https://10.9.1.102:81/aixyumrepo/RPMS/ppc-7.3/repodata/repomd.xml
However url was timeout when I connect to it by my PC.
Is there other remote repo ?
Thank you

The article also talk about how to setup a local dnf repo.
Please use that method, otherwise it is not easy to install RPMs because of their dependencies.
Then you have to resolve dependencies on your own and get all the dependent packages and install them.

Hi Sanket,
Thank you for your message. Our environment not able to connect to internet directory. So the dnf command can not execute as following.

Please install dnf and then install packages from AIX toolbox using dnf.

Hello.
I would like to install AIX toolbox to AIX7.3. I did installed a few toolbox at ptesent.
# env LANG=C rpm -Uvh /tmp/zlib*.rpm
Verifying... ################################# [100%]
Preparing... ################################# [100%]
Updating / installing...
1:zlib-1.2.13-1 ################################# [ 50%]
2:zlib-devel-1.2.13-1 ################################# [100%]
However some toolbox not able to install as foolwing.
How I can fix any error ? Please tell me how to fix it if you can do that.
PS.
Our environment not able to connect to internet directrory. Also we do not have iso file of AIX toolbox. Because our system IBM OEM server and ESS do not not authenticated by OEM hardware serial number. So we can not build local repo in AIX7.3.
