You provide only a vague reference to god-knows-what form of impending doom,
so perhaps you aren't aware of what `yes "n" | yum update` actually does? Do
you need to read it a bit closer?
Perhaps you have a better way to find out what packages are reported by yum as
ready for update that you might want to test first?
And I yes, I do sysadmin work as an integral part of my profession...
