RHEL 6 Yum Update

[dancormack]

Hello,
I am running into an issue trying to update my RHEL 6 install which has Nagios running on it. I am fully subscribed to Red Hat for updates. It looks like I am missing a repository which I suspect is related to Nagios (as I do not have this issue anywhere else).I have attached the relevant error messages in the update attempt. Please assist by identifying what I need to do to successfully update this server.. Thanks!

When I run the yum install, I get similar errors. I attached the output .. Errors2.txt) It looks like I am missing some repo however I do not know what one(s).

@dancormack, It's likely the rhel-6-server-optional-rpms.

Code: Select all

subscription-manager repos --enable=rhel-6-server-optional-rpms

Code: Select all

yum clean all
yum update

yum can be configured to try to resolve such errors by temporarily enabling disabled repos and searching for missing dependencies. To enable this functionality please set 'notify_only=0' in /etc/yum/pluginconf.d/search-disabled-repos.conf

I haven't tried it but maybe worth giving a shot. If you follow this instruction run these two commands after you modify the config.

Code: Select all

yum clean all
yum update

@npolovenko,

Adding the optional rpms repo did the trick. Thank you for your help! This issue has been resolved.
