Description

Kyvian offers a managed service for Linux server and virtual machine oversight, tailored for system administrators, IT operations personnel, and managed service providers. It integrates features such as fleet monitoring, package inventory, and patch management, all accessible via a browser dashboard for remote command execution. An agent installed on each machine communicates its status and available updates using outbound HTTPS, enabling the management of servers secured by NAT or firewalls without the need to expose an inbound SSH port. Administrators can evaluate updates across a variety of systems, including Debian, Ubuntu, RHEL-compatible, and SUSE-family distributions, easily pinpoint security updates and implement chosen packages or comprehensive updates. Additionally, the platform offers capabilities such as scheduled maintenance windows, VM tagging, an activity log, and multi-factor authentication for enhanced security. Designed specifically for teams overseeing Linux infrastructure in both cloud and on-premises settings, Kyvian provides a hosted management platform alongside agents that operate on the managed Linux virtual machines, ensuring seamless oversight and control. This combination empowers teams to maintain operational efficiency while safeguarding their systems effectively.

Description

Managing software packages on Linux systems, including installing, patching, and removing them, is a fundamental responsibility for system administrators. This guide will help you navigate the basics of package management specifically for Red Hat-based Linux distributions. Package management refers to the process of installing, updating, uninstalling, and monitoring software from designated repositories within the Linux ecosystem. Different Linux distributions utilize various package management tools tailored to their needs. For Red Hat-based systems, the RPM (RPM Package Manager) alongside YUM (Yellow Dog Updater, Modified) or its successor DNF (Dandified YUM) serves this purpose. YUM is the primary tool employed for the tasks of installing, updating, and managing software packages in Red Hat Enterprise Linux environments. It effectively resolves dependencies during the installation, update, and removal of software packages. Additionally, YUM can handle packages sourced from both the installed repositories and .rpm files. There is a wide array of commands and options at your disposal when working with YUM, allowing for flexible management of software on your system. Thus, familiarizing yourself with these commands is crucial for efficient system administration.
