How to Set Patch Sync Filters
Livepatch on-prem enables users to synchronise with the hosted server, and this synchronisation process is configurable.
The primary synchronisation filters are:
- System architecture for limiting patches via architecture
- Flavours for limiting the kernel flavour
- Minimum kernel version, only allowing versions greater than the minimum to be sychronised.
Here is an example that you can run in the shell:
juju config livepatch \
sync_flavors=generic,lowlatency,aws \
sync_architectures=amd64,s390x \
sync_minimum_kernel_version=5.4.0
In the example above:
| Parameter | Description |
|---|---|
sync_flavors |
Comma-separated list of kernel flavors to download patches for. |
sync_architectures |
Comma-separated list of kernel architectures to download patches for. |
sync_minimum_kernel_version |
A minimum kernel version of format “0.0.0” denoting the lowest kernel version to download patches for. |
