Thread: How to update the base kit to 1.0?

What is the official way to update a kusu base kit?

I have been running 0.10 and wanted to update to 1.0

Code:

[root@master ~]# kitops -l
Kit:            base

I first downloaded the new base iso and added that to my kits with kitops.
Then I added it to the repo with

Code:

$ repoman -r "Repo for centos-5-x86_64" -a -k base -o "1.0"
$ repoman -u

Calling ngedit now does not look good, as one can not distinguish the different versions ... It displays both versions as installed but just the old one is...

So I am no back to call

Code:

Is this what I want? How am i supposed to update?

I patched ngedit a bit and now it would probably be working if my cfmsync would do anything...

If this patch makes any sense I can open a ticket for it.

Ok there is another problem as far as I can see...

component-base-installer
component-base-node
component-centos-updates_5_x86_64_r1
component-gnome-desktop
component-lava-master-v1_0

The packages in there do not contain version numbers and therefore cfmsync -p does not update the packages after selecting them in ngedit.

cfmsync -u seems to be better ...

Hi,

For the base kit, there is no need to cfmsync after installing a new version. Basically, you will want to remove the old version of your base kit from the repo and install the new version.

After that, a 'yum update' will be sufficient(which I see you have done).

However, I do see the possibility where other kits may need to use cfmsync when they are updated to a new version. Please file this as an issue, and we will look into it.

Thanks again for contributing to Kusu :-)

I split this issue into the following tickets:
[#KUSU-960] cfmsync does not work for updating kits - Open Source Grid Development Center ,

[#KUSU-961] [PATCH] ngedit should display version information - Open Source Grid Development Center and

[#KUSU-962] kitops unable to update minor versions - Open Source Grid Development Center
