Hi Andy:

With kernel upgrades, I would simply do the RPM installs onto the client nodes, as it may or may not work on the image itself.

I am not sure about lilo, since we use grub, but you need to tweak the settings after a kernel upgrade or else your machine won't boot - for instance, I need to cpush an updated /boot/grub/menu.lst to the client nodes.

I would test it out on one client node first if I were you and pin down all the correct settings before continuing further.

Cheers,

Bernard

I'm running a seven-node oscar 3.0 cluster with some persistent data on
the nodes. (i.e. i dont want to cpushimage!) I currently have the default
kernel from red hat 9 installed, but the developers want an upgrade, for
which they have an rpm. My questions: What issues should i be aware of? How should i apply this upgrade? (cexec rpm -U xxx.rpm?) Will this
destroy my LILO boot environment? Is this even possible without using
cpushimage? Thanks for your time.
