YUM attempt to install instead of update MySQL packages

Question

I have a doubt about the difference between install and Upgrade message with YUM Update.

I have 2 servers with MySQL 5.6.25 installed on then "Server A" and "Server B".

When I run the command:

YUM update

I get in server A the install packages option:

Is this ok [y/N]:

And in the server B the Upgrade packages option:

what is the difference?

Hello, thanks for quick answer, how can I solve the problem? I mean, how can I rename the packages correctly and safely? — Jackknife, Dec 10 '15 at 20:06
Ok, now i get warning: rpmts_HdrFromFdno: V3 DSA/SHA1 signature: key ID 5072e1f5: NOKEY — Jackknife, Dec 10 '15 at 20:30
Preferred method would be to mport the key or you can run it with --nogpgcheck — Eddie Dunn, Dec 10 '15 at 20:40

We'd need to see the complete yum output to know for sure. Likely Server A and Server B are probably starting with different packages installed. Server A has packages using names that have been replaced with newer names where as Server B has packages that match the current names.

Hello @ScottDodson as you said, that was the problem, apparently package names were changed, thank you for your input! – Jackknife Dec 11 '15 at 12:00
