Version

Requirements
Hosts must be previously configured in the LCC database
Overview
This guide provides information and step-by-step instructions to configure Package Hold in the Linux Control Center.
Objective
Mark packages with the "Hold" flag to ensure they remain at their current version.
Package Hold on Hosts
To add packages to the Hold list of a host, go to the Hosts screen.
Click on the row of the desired host and open the General tab.
Select the packages in the Packages available to hold table and move them to the right table using the arrow button.
Click Save.
Done! From now on, any package management action performed on this host will respect the packages configured as "Hold", meaning those packages will not be modified.
Package Hold on Host Groups
To apply the Hold configuration to a host group, go to the Host Groups screen.
Click Manual.
Click on the desired group.
Scroll down to the Packages table, select the packages from the left table, and move them to the Packages in the group table on the right using the arrow button.
Click Save.
Done! From now on, any package management action performed on this host group will respect the packages configured as "Hold", meaning those packages will not be modified.
Package Hold Persist
This setting prevents the package from being modified even if the command is executed directly on the terminal of the hosts managed by LCC.
Click Config.
Click Parameters.
Click Ansible.
Check the option Package Hold Persist and click Save.
