Hi,
We are trying to put together intelligent policy for yum software
updates for workstations and servers. We would appreciate anyone
willing to share how the control yum updates for servers & workstations.
We started looking at the yum plugins; there are lots of options. Not
sure how well different plugins work together.
Does anyone use the yum-downloadonly plugin ? How do you install the yum
updates after they have been downloaded ?
If we use the yum-updateonboot plugin, that could mean long server
reboot times, if there are lots of updates (I remember this happening on
my fedora laptop).
If we use both the yum-downloadonly and yum-updateonboot plugins, would
that mean faster reboots since most of the updates would already be
saved local to the machine ?
Thanks,
