[Yum] cron automated "update" & "install" centrally located

[Prayther, Aaron]

I'm new to YUM but was looking for a way to manage a number of systems,
more or less centrally.  The key was that I wanted to not only to
"update" but "push" and... I think... this is going to work for me.

Is this an appropriate way to achieve a centrally managed update and
push?

#!/bin/sh

if [ -f /var/lock/subsys/yum ]; then
        /usr/bin/yum -R 10 -e 0 -d 0 -y -c http://ljads2/rhel4/yum.conf
update yum
        /usr/bin/yum -R 120 -e 0 -d 0 -y -c http://ljads2/rhel4/yum.conf
update
        /usr/bin/yum -R 120 -e 0 -d 0 -y -c http://ljads2/rhel4/yum-
push.conf install
fi
