[Spacewalk-list] Rollback in Spacewalk

[vijay singh]

Thanks Michael ,
for your response i have already test  updation  by using snapshot option.
But main problem was it didn't rollback kernel rpm. is there any other
process to avoid kernel updation.
This time i found exclude parameter in yum.conf which may be helpful for me
to avoid this kernel updation. if you have any thing else please share.


Thanks in advance
