EDR: How to Permanently Disable All Repos on the Application Server Except Carbon Black

[#1]

Environment

• EDR Server: All Versions
• EDR Application Server
• CentOS: 6.x

Objective

To only enable the CarbonBlack repo

Resolution

1. Open Terminal.
2. Switch user to root:

   #: su root

3. Disable all repos:

   yum-config-manager --disable \*

4. Enable the CarbonBlack repo:

   yum-config-manager --enable \CarbonBlack

Additional Notes

• Consider first if all other repos should be disabled before using this method.
  • If this cannot be done then use the temporary workaround for upgrading the product.
• This can be a permanent fix for those using a CentOS version that has reached end of life and no longer want to temporarily disable repos when upgrading EDR.
