Hi Samer,
This what I did to update all the erratas and packages on my
system.
I first ran up2date up2date to update the agent.
I then ran up2date -u &
The update took about 35 minutes to complete. I then
rebooted the system.
Now the system is show thats it running on RHEL AS 3 Taroon
Update 8. The system was previously
running on RHEL AS 3 Update 4.
Also runnng the up2date did not change the kernel version at
all. I am happy the system is updated now.
Just one more thing can you advise me on this when I check
the RHN for this system it is showing
12 erratas and 5 packages.
The 12 erratas relate to kernel issues,bug fix,security.
Do I need to apply these 12 erratas on my system?
Regards,
Danesh..
Hello,
to apply all the errata or not , depends on your environment
(But I
recommend you do, IF it will not effect any of th running
services
compatibility)
and I Recommend not to upgrade kernel (make package exclude
for kernel
packages) as this may have impact on some drivers on your
drivers - like
RAID drivers-
Good Luck
Keep me posted if you needed anything
Regards
Samer
