Backup Current Repository Configuration:
First, make a backup of your current repository configuration files.

cp /etc/yum.repos.d/CentOS-Base.repo /etc/yum.repos.d/CentOS-Base.repo.bak

Edit the Repository Configuration:
Open the CentOS-Base.repo file in a text editor. (vi or nano)

nano /etc/yum.repos.d/CentOS-Base.repo

Update the Base Repository URLs:

Replace the existing base repository URLs with the URLs pointing to the CentOS Vault. The updated configuration should look something like this:

[base]
name=CentOS-$releasever - Base
baseurl=http://vault.centos.org/7.9.2009/os/$basearch/
gpgcheck=1
gpgkey=file:///etc/pki/rpm-gpg/RPM-GPG-KEY-CentOS-7

[updates]
name=CentOS-$releasever - Updates
baseurl=http://vault.centos.org/7.9.2009/updates/$basearch/
gpgcheck=1
gpgkey=file:///etc/pki/rpm-gpg/RPM-GPG-KEY-CentOS-7

[extras]
name=CentOS-$releasever - Extras
baseurl=http://vault.centos.org/7.9.2009/extras/$basearch/
gpgcheck=1
gpgkey=file:///etc/pki/rpm-gpg/RPM-GPG-KEY-CentOS-7

Save the Changes:

Save the changes and exit the text editor (Ctrl+X, Y, Enter for nano).

Clean YUM Cache:

Clean the YUM cache to ensure it uses the updated repository configuration.

yum clean all
yum makecache

Update the System:

Now you can update your system using the Vault repositories.

yum update

This should allow you to continue using yum with the archived CentOS 7 repositories.
