DSU triggering yum update

Dell - Internal Use - Confidential
Yes. Once ‘commit’ option is selected, DSU informs about the operation and updates in progress. The work is in progress to make DSU more verbose on its initial phases also.

Thanks,

Hi,

Soorej, can we make dsu more verbose about processes it is running? It's important to know what is it doing and where is it stuck.

Try disabling (‘enabled=0’) the repos configured in /etc/yum.repos.d/ except the one for dsu (usually dell-system-update.repo  or dsu_repository.repo) while updating OMSA.

You can remove the existing srvadmin packages and install from new also.

rpm -e $(rpm -qa | grep srvadmin)

yum install srvadmin-all

Subject: [Linux-PowerEdge] DSU triggering yum update

Hi ,

I’m currently testing DSU on RHEL 6.7 over a Poweredge R730  and found out that when I choose to update OMSA DSU tries to run a full yum update command, not only updating the OMSA software but also tiggering a full OS update. Is this an intended behaviour?
On the other hand , I didn’t see an easy way to make this scriptable since the non-interactive option automatically installs all the updates (including the OMSA one which triggers the yum update)

Regards!
