OpenVZ - update error

Hello,

When I run the command

yum update

I have this error message

Loaded plugins: fastestmirror, security

Setting up Update Process

Error: Package: vzkernel-2.6.32-042stab104.1.x86_64 (openvz-kernel-rhel6)

       Requires: kernel-firmware >= 2.6.32-504.8.1.el6

       Installed: kernel-firmware-2.6.32-504.3.3.el6.noarch (@updates)

           kernel-firmware = 2.6.32-504.3.3.el6

You could try using --skip-broken to work around the problem

You could try running: rpm -Va --nofiles --nodigest

Can you help me

thank you

    yum update -x kernel*

    Try yum upgrade --skip-broken

    Make sure /etc/yum.conf does not contain "exclude=kernel*".
    "exclude=kernel" is ok.

    rpm -Uvh --force http://mirror.centos.org/centos/6/centosplus/x86_64/Packages/kernel-firmware-2.6.32-504.8.1.el6.centos.plus.noarch.rpm

    Might need a --nodeps. Then the vzkernel update should work.

    FrankZ might be right with your excludes. You can use vzkernel-firmware instead of kernel-firmware as well, but it isn't necessary with CentOS/RHEL.
