Solution for syncing only security patches in RHEL/CentOS


Hi All,

I am looking for a solution which will work like below:

1. We will have a test patch server where the security updates(only) will be downloaded first.

2. The RPMs will be saved in a private repository in the host within.

3. Once done, other hosts will be pulling the same updates(downloaded RPMs in the private repo) from the test patch server's private repository.

Now, the 3rd part is easy, we will have to just pull data from the private repo.

But, how come we can only download the security updates as RPM?

I tried installing "yum-security" and do a "yum list-security". But somehow, I can't filter the output and download the data.

Any help will be really appreciated.
