yum-cron
|
||
|
|
=========
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Installs and manages `yum-cron`.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
By default this role installs security updates every hour, and checks for but
|
||
|
|
does not install normal updates daily. For updates that aren't security flaws, I
|
||
|
|
prefer to delay upgrading until I'm available to fix anything that might go wrong.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Since the daily update level only checks but doesn't download, the notification
|
||
|
|
message will say "empty transaction", meaning it found an update, but didn't do
|
||
|
|
anything about it.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Requirements
|
||
|
|
------------
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Tested on CentOS 7.
|
||
|
|
Will likely work on equivalent RHEL or RHEL derivatives.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Role Variables
|
||
|
|
--------------
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
You'll likely want to change the default `email_to` variable to an email address
|
||
|
|
that you actually monitor.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
It's also possible to define special yum settings to for example exclude some packages from auto-updating:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
<pre>
|
||
|
|
#hourly_base_options:
|
||
|
|
# - "exclude=java*,kernel*"
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
#daily_base_options: "{{ hourly_base_options }}"
|
||
|
|
</pre>
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Example Playbook
|
||
|
|
----------------
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
- hosts: servers
|
||
|
|
roles:
|
||
|
|
- { role: yum-cron, email_to: support@rockclimbing.com, tags: ['yum_cron'] }
