What happens if you reboot a Ksplice Uptrack-enabled system when the following conditions
exist?
1. The Internet is unreachable due to a failing router.
2. The INSTALL_ON_REBOOT property is set to YES in /etc/uptrack/uptrack.conf.
A.
The Ksplice updates are applied early in the boot sequence despite the fact that the Internet is
unreachable.
B.
The Ksplice updates are not applied during the boot sequence, but they will be applied as soon
as the Internet becomes reachable again.
C.
The updates are not applied during the boot sequence and will not be applied after the Internet
has become reachable again.
D.
The system waits in the boot sequence for the internet to become reachable again.
E.
The system boots to single-user mode.
Explanation:
* # Automatically install updates at boot time. If this is set, on
# reboot into the same kernel, Uptrack will re-install the same set of
# updates that were present before the reboot.
install_on_reboot = yes
* To install updates automatically at boot time, the following entry must appear in
/etc/uptrack/uptrack.conf:
install_on_reboot = yes
Answer is A

Answer: A
Ksplice patches are stored in /var/cache/uptrack. Following a reboot, Ksplice Uptrack automatically
re-applies these patches very early in the boot process before the network is configured, so that the
system is hardened before any remote connections can be established.
To prevent Ksplice Uptrack from automatically reapplying updates to the kernel when you reboot the
system, set the entry to:
install_on_reboot = no
# cat /etc/uptrack/uptrack.conf
…
[Settings]
…
# Uptrack runs in a cron job every few hours to check for and download
# new updates. You can can configure this cron job to automatically
# install new updates as they become available.
#
# Enable this option to make the cron job automatically install new
# updates.
# …
autoinstall = yes
#
To install updates automatically at boot time, the following entry must appear in /etc/uptrack/uptrack.conf:
install_on_reboot = yes
So A is correct
