What is 1yum?

When we buy a mobile phone or a computer, there will usually be an xx application market on it. When we want to download software, we just download it directly in the application market and install it directly.

The application market here can be vividly compared to the yum command, which can be used to quickly download the corresponding command (software) in the Linux environment.

How to use 2yum?

2.1How to download the corresponding instructions in yum

Let’s quickly use a yum command first

yum install -y sl

yum: Download the corresponding command (software)

install: Install the corresponding instructions (software)

sl: corresponding command

-y: Confirm download and installation

The role of -y

2.2. How to delete the corresponding instructions in yum

If one day we find that we have insufficient disk space and I want to delete the sl command, what should I do?

yum remove -y sl

remove: delete the corresponding instruction

sl: corresponding command

-y: confirm deletion

3. Update yum source

3.1 Why update the yum source?

When installing Centos7 on a virtual machine, the default yum source is foreign, which causes the speed of downloading software to be unsatisfactory. At this time, we need to update yum to the domestic one.

3.2 How to update yum source

Note: It is recommended to use copy and paste first. If that doesn’t work, then use manual input.

1. First enter the directory cd /etc/yum.repos.d 

cd /etc/yum.repos.d

2. Make a backup of our original yum source

mv CentOS-Base.repo CentOS-Base.repo.backup

3. Download the domestic yum source to CentOs-Base.repo in the current directory 

Here we recommend using Alibaba Cloud (personal recommendation)

wget -O /etc/yum.repos.d/CentOS-Base.repo http://mirrors.aliyun.com/repo/Centos-7.repo

4. Clear yum cache

yum clean all

Can free up disk space and clear old caches

5. Generate a new yum cache

yum makecache

In this way, our yum source has been updated.

What should we do if we want to change back to the original yum in the future?

mv CentOS-Base.repo.backup CentOS-Base.repo

yum clean all

yum makecache

Just execute the above three commands in sequence
