My short term hack is to keep the last RPM around somewhere else, and check against the Oracle URL redirect:
#!/bin/bash LOCAL=`ls /var/www/html/kickstart | grep jre-8` URL="http://javadl.sun.com/webapps/download/AutoDL?BundleId=106239"; GET=`curl -Is $URL | grep Location` FILE=`echo $GET | sed -e "s/.*\(jre-8.*rpm\).*ext=.*/\1/"` if [ $LOCAL == $FILE ]; then exit else echo "There is an Oracle JRE update available" | /bin/mail -s "java version check" root fi > > On Thursday, April 23, 2015 at 2:43:18 PM UTC-7, Mark Moorcroft wrote: > > The elasticsearch wisdom seems to be to use the Oracle JRE.
