Updating the Ksplice Uptrack Client to a Specific Effective Kernel Version
You might want to limit the set of updates that uptrack-upgrade installs. For example, the security policy at a site might require a senior administrator to approve Ksplice updates before you can install these updates on production systems. In such cases, you can direct uptrack-upgrade to upgrade to a specific effective kernel version instead of the latest available version.
Note:
You can only select a specific effective version when using the offline Ksplice client and offline update RPM packages. This ability keeps production systems at a tested update level temporarily, while the latest updates are tested in an integration or UAT environment.
