NOTE: While mirroring YOU patch bundles from a remote server in one management zone to a
primary local server in another zone, packages for the target oes-9-i586 are added to the patch
bundle on the local ZENworks Linux Management server, although the patch bundles contain
packages only for target sles-9-i586.

25.7 Deploying Red Hat Network Updates

When you use ZENworks Linux Management to mirror a Red Hat distribution from the Red Hat
Network, the mirroring process creates a single bundle containing all of the RPM packages. This
bundle is not usually assigned directly to a managed device because it contains the entire Red Hat
distribution and might contain RPM packages that conflict with each other.
Following are two scenarios for updating devices with RPM packages:
Section 25.7.1, "Providing All RPM Packages and Package Bundles through a Catalog
(Pulling)," on page 311
Section 25.7.2, "Delivering Specific RPM Packages (Pushing)," on page 311
