Elastic Repos #106

Closed thorteschenk closed 1 year ago

thorteschenk commented 1 year ago

Hi,

Elastic Repos should be disabled by default (enabled=0), so that it is not updated with os updates.

In each roles at point installation they should be enabled explicit with enablerepo parameter.

Thanks for the feedback!

We can add this as an option. So you can add the repositories in an disabled state. I believe, most users rely on the repositories being enabled by default. But you do have a good point. Given that Elastic introduces breaking changes quite often, it's a good idea to have them disabled.

I just don't want to set our defaults to something, users won't expect. But I'll integrate an option to allow disabling/enabling them on demand and I'll dedicate a section in Readme to Update handling.

PR #108 contains code that might allow this scenario. It's not really a draft but it might need some more work.
