Patch sync filtersΒΆ

Livepatch on-prem synchronises patches from an upstream server. This synchronisation process is configurable through filters that limit which patches are downloaded.

The primary synchronisation filters are:

  • System architecture β€” Limit patches to specific CPU architectures.

  • Flavours β€” Limit patches to specific kernel flavours.

  • Minimum kernel version β€” Only synchronise patches for kernel versions greater than a specified minimum.

Configure sync filters to reduce the disk space consumed by patch files, or when client machines are limited to a specific set of kernel variants.

For a complete list of available sync filter options, see the Livepatch Server configuration reference.
