What to do when Cpanel/WHM udate is hanging

Sometimes a cPanel/YUM upgrade will hang and instead of manually trying to kill all processes you can simply use this comand

killall -9 rpm; killall -9 rpmq; killall -9 yum; killall -9 upcp

mv /var/lib/rpm/__db* /root  (in case your YUM DB is corrupted)

rpm --rebuilddb (to rebuild your cPanel/Yum DB)

yum --exclude=kernel* -y update

yum clean all
