Unnecessary: you can set up a local yum repository with a copy of the 
files on the DVD.
This is the sort of thing I've done with local downloads of the RPM's 
for a local yum repository, to be able to mix and match non-RedHat RPM's 
in a local setting and to eliminate a lot of external traffic from 
up2date itself, and to be able to peek into the the RPM's directly on 
that server. It's legal as near as I can tell as long as you have RedHat 
licenses on all the clients using that central repository.
I've seen and yelled at people using this stunt to distributie packages 
to a bunch of "licensed" machines, but unly registering the licenses 
when they felt like it, to effectively extend their licenses. I consider 
this a violation of RedHat licensing and urge people *not* to do it.
