How to Install an Red Hat RPM package via Big Fix

Usage and Config
1

BigFix is enabled with RHSM Plugin to patch the Red Hat Enterprise Servers,
However, how do I install a specific “rpm” package in a Linux server via Big Fix. Is there a way to install “rpm” by using the RHSM plugin and available CDN repository?

Greetings.

You can do this by utilizing taskID 401 ‘Yum command with RHSM download plugin - RHEL 7 - x86_64 - Server’.

@Samsir firstly you need to enable RHSM plugin onto you main IBM BigFix server, later you can follow the steps which are been given into the link.
