=====Using Ksplice=====

====Setting up Local Ksplice Repo====


====Using Ksplice to patch servers Locally=====

1. Clear/rename old non-ksplice REPOs,  so go to /etc/yum.repos.d, you should only see 2 files with .repo
<code>
-rw-r--r--. 1 root root 495 May 14  2020 Local-ksplice.repo
-rw-r--r--. 1 root root 617 May 14  2020 Local-oracle.repo 
</code>
2. Install the following packages:<code>

# yum install uptrack-updates-$(uname -r)
# yum install ksplice-updates-glibc*
# yum install ksplice-updates-openssl*</code>

3. To list the available Ksplice updates, use the upgrade subcommand: 
<code># ksplice -n all upgrade</code>

4. To install all available Ksplice updates, use the upgrade subcommand: 
<code># ksplice -y user upgrade</code>

5. To Review after patching, you can get a list of what packages have been installed using:
<code># ksplice all show</code>
