So what if you try and install the new kernel?

 

[Audrey]

Have to eat - will manually install the kernel in a bit

yum install --downloadonly 5.14.0-570.58.1.el9_6.x86_64

wrong command usage

No match for argument: 5.14.0-570.58.1.el9_6.x86_64

 

[Audrey]

What is the proper command usage?

 

[Audrey]

yum does not seem to think there is a new kernel available
and
dnf does not think there is a newer version available
Maybe there is not an updated kernel for DirectAdmin?
For the past 2 years (except for the last 2 months) when Cpanel updates my Cpanel server kernels, yum update always lets me update the kernel to the same kernel and cpanel servers.
Would you please let me know what is the newest kernel available for DirectAdmin AlmaLinux 9 servers.

[root@host5 ~]# dnf check-update kernel

maybe cache problem try

sudo dnf clean all
sudo dnf update
[code]

 

[Audrey]

Thanks for your advice, but,
sudo dnf clean all
then
sudo dnf update
did not make a difference
