Oracle Linux 7 Unable to Identify Security Packages

vishksajAug 13 2021

Hi Team,
We have a local oracle repo that we used to update security packages for oracle linux servers.
We are using following commands to sync repo
#####################################################
reposync -l --norepopath -p /u01/repo/OracleLinux/ol7_UEKR4/Packages --repoid=ol7_UEKR4
createrepo /u01/repo/OracleLinux/ol7_UEKR4/Packages
######################################################
Repodata is getting generated and works fine with Oracle servers but the servers are unable to identify security packages even though it's present in local oracle repository.
Example if we execute "yum update --security" it will say no packages to upgrade with local repository
if we execute same with public oracle repository its showing many packages. Even though these packages are available in local repository it's not coming under "yum update --security" installation
Please let me know if anybody have solutions for this issue.
Thanks
