Reinstalling Cloudstack 3.0.2 on CentOS 6.2
When reinstalling Cloudstack 3.0.2 on CentOS 6.2 I've noticed that the installation script (./install.sh) complains...
> 10 packages excluded due to repository priority protections
> [eric@sn1 yum.repos.d]$ yum repolist all
> ...
> repo id repo name status
> base CentOS-6 - Base enabled: 6,294
> c6-media CentOS-6 - Media disabled

> rpmforge-extras RHEL 6 - RPMforge.net - extras disabled
> rpmforge-testing RHEL 6 - RPMforge.net - testing disabled
> updates CentOS-6 - Updates enabled: 1,129
What is this about? What packages were excluded? Are the excluded packages critical? Can the installation script enable the repositories that contain the excluded packages (so that I don't have to edit the repository files manually)?

Thanks, Edison:
I'll take a look at the configuration of YUM.

The cloudstack installation script only creates a new local repository which includes all the cloudstack packages, then call "yum install cloud-agent" to install cloudstack related software.
The warning "10 packages excluded due to repository priority protections" comes from the priority setting in your repositories. Regarding to priority setting in Yum repo:
http://wiki.centos.org/PackageManagement/Yum/Priorities, I doesn't think it's a right way to suppress/disable priority setting in your repositories in cloudstack installation script, as the priority setting is a system wide configuration, cloudstack needs to respect it.
It's better to manually change the priority setting based on your need: you can disable it, enable it, change the priority level for certain repository etc.
