STRM installs both a customized version of boost and modules to support the
Endace cards that are tied to a particular version of the kernel. If you upgrade Red
Hat Enterprise, the wrong versions of boost and the kernel will be installed. To
ensure that boost and the kernel function properly you must exclude them from
upgrades and installations by configuring Up2Date.
To exclude kernel and boost from upgrades and installations:
Enter the following command:
up2date --configure
