RHEL Patching Strategy.
How do you keep patches consistent across environments? For instance, we want to patch all of the test/dev servers this month, then bring production up to the same revisions next month. All of our systems are in RHN so if we "yum update" today we'll potentially get newer patches when we do this in production. I was just curious how people are handling this.

About the easiest way to do this is to create you own repo. This way you can pick and choose which packages to add to the repo. Take a look at the createrepo package.
You can run one repo for test/dev and once a package gets the all clear move it to the production repo. |
you could also setup a RHN Proxy Server

I went with this solution. Thanks for pointing me in the right direction.
