Zypper patching using file as input

[malcolmlewis]

Thanks Malcom,
However the scenario i am dealing with is i have a server which is acting as a repo host for our application build. The server is custom built with limited set of rpm only all the rpm we get in iso. Also this server is not connected to internet or sles subscription.

Is there a way we can write a script to search for an update maybe weekly and download only the rpm we sceficy along with the dependencies.

Hi
The only way would be to create a RMT server to download too and then pull files from that. Else you would need to look at the patches output from https://download.suse.com/index.jsp and manually grab.

I either case you could copy the rpms off to say a USB device and configure as a plain rpm repository for the system to update from. You will need an active subscription to get patches or rmt running.
