Hi everyone, can anyone post the status of the yum-cron service?
I noticed that in / var / lock / subsystem / yum-cron is not present as in the past. I would just like to make a comparison.
This is my server’s:
● yum-cron.service - Run automatic yum updates as a cron job
Loaded: loaded (/usr/lib/systemd/system/yum-cron.service; disabled; vendor preset: disabled)
Active: inactive (dead)
And this is the configuration:
yum-cron = service
applyUpdate = no
customMail =
download = no
messages = yes
randomWait = 360
status = enabled
0 -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 0 Jan 2 10:08 /var/lock/subsys/yum-cron
● yum-cron.service - Run automatic yum updates as a cron job
Loaded: loaded (/usr/lib/systemd/system/yum-cron.service; enabled; vendor preset: disabled)
Active: active (exited) since Wed 2019-01-02 10:08:59 CET; 4 months 27 days ago
Main PID: 4562 (code=exited, status=0/SUCCESS)
CGroup: /system.slice/yum-cron.service
IIRC, this is default config with just one change (download):
Hi, by running yum-cron manually I read this: ● yum-cron.service -
Loaded: loaded (/usr/lib/systemd/system/yum-cron.service; disabled; vendor preset: disabled)
Active: active (exited) since Fri 2019-05-31 11:28:41 CEST; 5min needle
Process: 23570 ExecStart = / bin / touch / var / lock / subsys / yum-cron (code = exited, status = 0 / SUCCESS)
Main PID: 23570 (code = exited, status = 0 / SUCCESS)
How do I activate the service automatically?
Also if I see config show yum-cron and change parameters (eg status enabled or disabled) what signal do I have to do?
Thank you
