I was using yum to update packages a few nights ago on one of my
servers. The update of rpm packages appeared to die. Since then,
commands like 'yum check-update' will consume the system. This is a
dual-core Pentium-D, with X64 (and I'm running 64 bit). One CPU pegs
at 100% running yum, but whatever it's doing on disk really is the
bigger issue. It so consumes the disk subsystem as everything else
grinds to a halt and the system becomes unusable (likely swapping
itself silly).
I'd really like to get this resovled and apply errata. What I need to
know is where to start looking. I've tried a 'yum clean all' but that
doesn't help.
