5.4.2. Software System Profile
The software System Profile consists of a list of RPM packages for which you wish to
receive notifications. The
Red Hat Network Registration Client
displays a list of all RPM
packages listed in the RPM database on your system and then allows you to customize the
list by deselecting packages.
5.4.2.1. Gathering RPM Database Information
Only those packages you choose during this part of the registration are included in your
System Profile, and you will only receive notifications about the packages in your System
Profile. Thus, if you use an older version of a package and deselect it from the list, it will
not be replaced with a newer version. This RPM list can be modified through the Red Hat
Network website or by using the
Red Hat Update Agent
. Figure 5-9 shows the progress
bar displayed while the
Red Hat Network Registration Client
gathers a list of the RPM
packages installed on your system. This operation may take some time depending on your
system.
