  • Locking RPM versions within the latest minor release across multiple hosts

    Posted on

    Hi,

    We know that we can lock a certain minor release version using "SM release --set=7.x". But is there a possibility to lock/ always update to a certain state of RPM packages within that release, across a set of machines?

    Example:
    A company's "OS patching cycle" starts on 1st Jan and continues for 3 months. During those 3 months "yum update" provides different results on multiple machines as new pkgs become available during the course of those 3 months.

    Is there a way, so that "yum update" installs the same set of pkgs on 25th March and 1st Jan.

    Is it only possible using Satellite?

    Thanks,
    Junaid.
