OP never answered my question if $CHECKONLY is in fact not empty.
So:
echo "CHECKONLY is $CHECKONLY"
echo "{CHECKONLY} is ${CHECKONLY}"
is for starters.
And I would change this to:
if [ $CHECKONLY == "no" ]; then
if [ -f /var/lock/subsys/yum ]; then
/usr/bin/yum -R 10 -e 0 -d 0 -y update yum
/usr/bin/yum -R 120 -e 0 -d 0 -y update
fi
else
/usr/bin/yum-check
fi
This way, if $CHECKONLY is empty script will just check, not update.
