Actually, that's the problem that Red Hat Satellite Server can solve. You can approve packages for deployment. Thus, when provisioning new servers, they get updates from the approved list. And servers are grouped by class. For the free version, one should investigate Project SpaceWalk. http://www.redhat.com/spacewalk/
Thanks for the pointer. I've looked at it a few weeks ago back when there was some news about it and it looked promising but I didn't have time to learn it in depth. Will keep it in my stack of things to look at.
I just wrote a HowTo on this topic. Spacewalk can help you manage software versions across different environments using software channels. The document is available here: http://wiki.centos.org/HowTos/PackageManagement/Spacewalk
