[Spacewalk-list] KSplice Updates

How are you running your updates now? The ksplice repo should contain errata metadata that will allow you to upgrade based on CVE/errata.

Btw, I strongly recommend using the "latest only" option for the ksplice repos, otherwise they're huge. Each release supersedes the previous, so you only need to keep the latest package for each base kernel version.

Note I'm actually on annual leave travelling with only my iPad, so responses will be delayed. For best results, email me directly so the email isn't filtered into a folder I check less often. :)

Normally we only install the security updates on our Linux servers (or Critical/Security Advisory) updates.  I can't seem to figure out how to run only the security updates AND the KSplice updates.  Right now I have the KSplice repository in our Oracle Linux 7 Channel.  Any suggestions?
