Explanation
When using the "Patch OS now" feature in NDB to apply updates to a Red Hat-based operating system, the administrator can limit updates to security patches only by leveraging the Advanced Options. Under the "Custom commands" section of the operating system patching command window, entering yum update --security instructs the package manager to install only security- related updates. This ensures the system remains secure without applying all available updates, which could introduce instability.
