Unattended Security Updates

RHEL / Red Hat · pro · solved in-browser (no VM needed) · 3 tiered hints

Write /etc/dnf/automatic.conf so dnf-automatic applies only security updates: a [commands] section with upgrade_type=security, download_updates=yes, and apply_updates=yes, plus an [emitters] section with emit_via=email. (Authored config, graded structurally — the engine isn't run here.)
