[Spacewalk-list] Hang a specific version of CentOS

[Ree, Jan-Albert van]

If you want to stick to 6.7 on some machines, make a new child channel which doesn't pull all updates, but only required security updates (such as from http://vault.centos.org/6.7/updates/x86_64/Packages/ )

Now remove your normal updates child channel for these machines and add this special child channel instead.

Subject: [Spacewalk-list] Hang a specific version of CentOS

Hello everyone,

Some machines connected to my local spacewalk use CentOS 6.7.
If I launch a yum update, more than 300 packages will be update and my CentOS version will change to 6.8.

These specific machines have to stay on version 6.7
How can I have security updates to 6.7 and 6.8 on the same server?

Thanks for your help.

Olivier
