Hello All, Thanks for reply In Centos, /etc/sysconfig/rhn/sources file is exist, which are *** Start *** ### This describes the various package repositories (repos) that up2date will ### query for packages. It currently supports apt-rpm, yum, and "dir" repos. ### Format is one repository (repo) entry per line, # starts comments, the ### first word on each line is the type of repo. ### The default RHN (using "default" as the url means use the one in the ### up2date config file). This is required. #up2date default ### Note: when a channel label is required for the non up2date repos, ### the label is solely used as an internal identifier and is not ### based on the url or any other info from the repos. ### An apt style repo (the example is arjan's 2.6 kernel repo). ### The format is: ### type channel-label service:server path repo name #apt arjan-2.6-kernel-i386 http://people.redhat.com ~arjanv/2.5/ kernel ### Note: for apt repos, there can be multiple repo names specified (space ### seperated). ### A yum style repo. The format is: ### type channel-label url #yum fedora-core-development http://download.fedora.redhat.com/pub/fedora/linux/core/development/$ARCH/ ### A local directory full of packages (a "dir" repo). For example: #dir my-favorite-rpms /var/spool/RPMS/ # Multiple versions of all repos except "up2date" can be used. Dependencies # can be resolved "cross-repo" if need be. yum centos4-Base http://mirror.centos.org/centos/4/os/$ARCH/ yum centos4-Updates http://mirror.centos.org/centos/4/updates/$ARCH/ yum centos4-extras http://mirror.centos.org/centos/4/extras/$ARCH/ #yum centos4-contrib http://mirror.centos.org/centos/4/contrib/$ARCH/ yum centos4-addons http://mirror.centos.org/centos/4/addons/$ARCH/ #yum centos4-centosplus http://mirror.centos.org/centos/4/centosplus/$ARCH/ *** End *** From: "Nabeel Moidu" <nabeelmoidu@xxxxxxxxx> Subject: Re: update os Do you have the /etc/sysconfig/rhn/sources file ? The steps I'd given was for RHEL based on up2date. I'm not sure whats the CENTOS equivalent for the /etc/sysconfig/rhn/sources file. Maybe someone with more exp on centos can help you. btw if you do have the above file, please post the contents of it. -- Thanks and Regards Nabeel Moidu Doha, Qatar On Thu, Jun 26, 2008 at 5:16 PM, Vivek Mangal <vivek.mangal9685@xxxxxxxxx> wrote: > hello All, > Thanks for the reply and help me > but their is still a problem > The link which you gave me show these steps, which are > > ***start**** > > 1) Download the isos for the specific version from > https://rhn.redhat.com/rhn/software/downloads/SupportedISOs.do using the > rhn login. > > 2) Mount the CDs/DVD and copy the rpm packages in the RPMS folder in it to > a particular folder like say /var/spool/RPMS/. > > 3) Open the file /etc/sysconfig/rhn/sources and comment the line > > #up2date default > > Modify the line beginning "# dir my-favorite-rpms " > > dir UPDA-RPMS /var/spool/RPMS/ > > Save the file and exit. > > 4) Run the following command > > [root@rhel ~]# up2date --configure > 0. adminAddress ['root@localhost', ''] > 1. debug No > > > > ==SNIPPED== > 19. pkgSkipList ['kernel*', ''] > 20. pkgsToInstallNotUp ['kernel', 'kernel-modules', 'kernel-devel', ''] > > > > ==SNIPPED== > Enter number of item to edit : > > Edit the pkgSkipList to include the kernel rpms for update. > > 5) Make sure the server is backed up in the current state.
