Hi all... Great work on 7.6!
I updated a number of boxes - all good! This "one" server I lost connection through the internet or something... Anyway 702 transactions left and its not happy. When I run yum-complete-transaction I get "many"
Removing man-db.x86_64 0:2.6.3-9.el7 - ud from the transaction Removing man-db.x86_64 0:2.6.3-11.el7 - u from the transaction Removing python-ethtool.x86_64 0:0.8-5.el7 - ud from the transaction Removing python-ethtool.x86_64 0:0.8-7.el7 - u from the transaction Removing iprutils.x86_64 0:2.4.15.1-1.el7 - ud from the transaction Removing iprutils.x86_64 0:2.4.16.1-1.el7 - u from the transaction Removing strace.x86_64 0:4.12-6.el7 - ud from the transaction Removing strace.x86_64 0:4.12-9.el7 - u from the transaction
and then nothing happens.... (This is just a short list) many are printed.
Thoughts? What next?
I had a spurious problem on updating large number of packages which would cause a similar problem. I needed to break the update on these systems into 2 transactions: 1. yum update --skip-broken --exclude="gdm*" --exclude="java-1.7.0" --exclude="NetworkManager*" --exclude="ModemManager*" 2. yum update
Not every system did this and there didn't seem to be a rhyme or reason on why it happened for the ones I ran into it (plenty of memory, plenty of CPU, etc etc)
