If you configured the Red Hat Update Agent to install the latest packages automatically, then your System Profile stored by Red Hat Network will be updated automatically also. However, if you only download the latest RPM packages using the Red Hat Update Agent or through the Web interface and upgrade or install the packages yourself, your System Profile will not be updated automatically. If you remove packages, you need to update your RPM package list in your System Profile.
To synchronize the RPM package list on your local system and on Red Hat Network run the command
up2date -p |
After running this command, your System Profile on Red Hat Network will reflect the latest software versions installed on your system.
