There seems to be no good way of doing this other than a "yum update" - just updating the metapackage seems to not encapsulate all of the installed, but updated, RPMs, e.g.,
node001:~# yum update
[...]
I will do the following:
[update: edg-mkgridmap-conf 2.7.0-1_sl3.noarch]
[update: glite-config 1.8.4-0.noarch]
[update: glite-lb-common 3.0.6-1.i386]
[update: edg-mkgridmap 2.7.0-1_sl3.noarch]
[update: glite-rgma-command-line 5.0.4-1.noarch]
[update: glite-WN 3.0.13-0.noarch]
[update: glite-security-gsoap-plugin 1.2.5-0.i386]
[update: lcg-ManageSoftware 2.0-6.noarch]
[update: glite-rgma-api-python 5.0.10-1.noarch]
[update: glite-rgma-base 5.0.7-1.noarch]
[update: glite-wms-common 1.5.14-1.i386]
I will install/upgrade these to satisfy the dependencies:
[deps: lcg-tags 0.2.1-1.noarch]
But updating only the metapackage gives a palrty:
node001:~# yum update glite-WN
I will do the following:
[update: glite-WN 3.0.13-0.noarch]
I will install/upgrade these to satisfy the dependencies:
[deps: lcg-tags 0.2.1-1.noarch]
I think there's an argument for running a "yum update" nightly on the worker nodes, but it still seems far too dangerous a thing to do on the servers. Too much of a risk of daemons not restarting properly or java being arsed up.
I also added the new VOMS certificate for dzero - using cfengine this is easy. Unfortunately, not everything is yet cfenginified: machines currently not under cfengine control: svr019 (MON), svr021 (site BDII), disk servers. Should try and address this soon.
