Use yum-cron or yum-updatesd to keep all installed packages up to date. Use puppet to be sure that the packages you want are installed. This is a classic example of the right tool for the right job. Yum to keep things up to date. Puppet to make sure the box is configured correctly. If you only want certain updates to be available or applied to your servers then use a local repo were you stage all okayed updates for your machines
