  4. Optional: If you have multiple repositories configured in your environment, deploy the following plug-in on all the nodes in your cluster.

    1. Install the plug-in.

      For RHEL and CentOS 7:
      yum install yum-plugin-priorities
      For RHEL and CentOS 6:
      yum install yum-plugin-priorities
    2. Edit the /etc/yum/pluginconf.d/priorities.conf file to add the following:
