Managing Software Repositories from the Web Interface and CLI

You can manage repositories from the web interface or the CLI. Keep in mind the rules for creating or
deleting repositories from the web interface or CLI:
•If you create a repository from the CLI, that repository is not visible from the web interface, and can
only be deleted from the CLI.
•If you create a repository from the web interface, it can be deleted from the CLI; however, that
repository still exists in the web interface. If you use the web interface to create a repository for a
software update, the repository is automatically created again in the CLI.
•If you delete a repository using the web interface, it is also deleted in the CLI.
