Cause
Examining the "repo" files in /etc/yum.d.repos, it was found that every .repo file
except CarbonBlack.repo had a record:
priority=1
The CarbonBlack.repo had no "priority" record.
Solution
1. edited every .repo and set priority=2 or higher
2. edited CarbonBlack.repo and set priority=1
3. re-ran "yum cb-enterprise update"
4. optionally, reverse the priority designations, per the discrepancy of the Yum administrator.
