Yep - if any version of yum is running, no other will. At work, I do

desktops. And some managers are rather picky as to what servers get updated, and when, esp. their production boxes. So, it's tedious, but I have control - yum runs when I run it, and not otherwise.

So is there a way to configure yum and/or yum-updatesd so that I get a GUI notice that updates are available, but then run the actual update when I want from the CLI?
Run 'yum check-update' as a cron job.
And then | tee it >> out to /var/log/yum/check_update.log
or | mail -s "Yum updates available" <youremail>
