    I installed kernel 5.1 which works fine. But Centmin keeps giving me kernel 3.10 updates.

    How can I stop CMM to update the 3.10 kernel? Or even better, to check for 5.1 kernels?

    How did you install 5.1 Linux Kernel?

    What does output for below command give
    Code (Text):
    yum -q list updates | tr -s ' ' | column -t

    and
    Code (Text):
    yum -q list kernel* | tr -s ' ' | column -t


    You can still update system Linux Kernels from my experience or you can just exclude them from updates or do a yum version lock on them.

    First command gives no output, second command:
    Code:
    # yum -q list kernel* | tr -s ' ' | column -t

    Then just use YUM Versionlock to prevent kernel packages from being updated.
    Code (Text):
    yum -y versionlock kernel-[0-9]*

    Code (Text):
    yum -y versionlock kernel-[0-9]*
Loaded plugins: fastestmirror, priorities, versionlock
Adding versionlock on: 0:kernel-3.10.0-862.3.2.el7
Adding versionlock on: 0:kernel-3.10.0-957.10.1.el7
Adding versionlock on: 0:kernel-3.10.0-1160.59.1.el7
versionlock added: 3

    Code (Text):
    yum versionlock list | grep kernel
0:kernel-3.10.0-862.3.2.el7.*
0:kernel-3.10.0-957.10.1.el7.*
0:kernel-3.10.0-1160.59.1.el7.*
