Easier To Use Tools for Upgrading Systems Not Connected to the Internet

Latest response

RHEL needs better tools for upgrading and patching standalone systems or small groups of systems that are not connected to the Internet.  I realize that Satellite server exists though it is too expensive and too complex for standalone systems or small groups of systems.  I would like to be able to conduct RHEL upgrades just by putting a DVD in the system and clicking on a GUI tool that says "update from DVD" or running a simple command on the CLI.  Several other folks have commented on the complexity and weaknesses of Red Hat's current suggested approach following the knowledge base article at this URL:
