•
Packages
— Total number of package updates for the system. Includes packages from Errata
Alerts as well as newer packages that are not from Errata Alerts. For example, imagine a client
system that has an early version of a package installed. If this client is then subscribed to the
appropriate base channel of RHN (such as Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5), that channel may have an
updated version of the package. If so, the package appears in the list of available package updates.
Important
If the RHN website identifies package updates for the system, yet the
Red Hat Update
Agent
responds with "Your system is fully updated" when run, a conflict likely exists in
the system's package profile or in the
up2date
configuration file. To resolve the conflict,
either schedule a package list update or remove the packages from the Package
Exceptions list for the
Red Hat Update Agent
. Refer to
Section 7.4.2.9, “System
Details”
or
Section 4.4.1.3, “Package Exceptions Settings”
, respectively, for instructions.
