yum and art

[nobody]

Hello.

I wanted to ask.
When I configured yum to update through art repository it asked if I wish to also update plesk but it recommended no ...
Should I or not ? I have plesk 9.0.1

I use together with art the default repository aswell "was already installed". Is there any way there might be in the future some kind of conflict ?
Some times it updates the base...

Also I do not mind paying for the atomic but I havent yet understood something.
If so. Does this offer me more services than the free user ? And then the whole OS - services - plesk - kernel will be patched and have support if something crashes on the server from the atomic team ?

You can use exclude= inside the /etc/yum.repos.d and the atomic repo files to block what you don't want updated.

I always use exclude as you may have your own packages or different versions you want preserved.

Thats a repository of the packages shipped in plesk 8 or 9, dumped into a yum archive. I recommend enabling it on a plesk box, because yum will be able to resolve dependencies the plesk updater cannot.

Generally no, when a conflict arises its generally because of someones bug.

Also I do not mind paying for the atomic but I havent yet understood something.

[atomic] is the free repo, [asl-2.0] is the commercial repository for our security product, Atomic Secured Linux. You can learn more about that here:
