Just trying to get some info on the yum-updatesd process as I audit some of
our RHEL5 systems and processes running on them. From what I can tell, it
runs to alert to the various updates that are available. But we also have the
rhnsd process running which is talking to a local satellite server. The Sat.
server already emails me the daily status reports, as well as lists system
updates outstanding. So I assume that the yum-updatesd process in this case
is redundant because I'm not allowing any auto updating to happen on our
systems.
Am I overlooking anything, and will I lose any unforeseen functionality if I
disable it?
I don't install it to our servers and have not seen any loss of
functionality or problems because of that.
