I was doing a yum update today. It downloaded all the packages. was doing the next part and my remote connection was lost. so ssh session was killed.
When I logged back in I am not sure if the update is done or not. I presume not. I presume it died with my remote session.
I do a yum update now and it returns as if there is nothing to update. last I saw it was 30 out of 312 in the installation section.
What next?

IIRC, "rpm -qa --last >/tmp/<somefile" will give the information you need.

This is a very good reason to use 'screen' ;).

I have been burned by this also. Screen makes it much safer to run the updates.
