Yum issues with low memory plans (Resolution)

If you are getting yum errors on our 128 or 192 yearly plans with the CentOS/Fedora distro then it's because you are trying to run yum with a low amount of memory, You'll need to tweak yum a tiny bit in order for yum to work properly. Do the following:

 

nano /etc/yum/pluginconf.d/fastestmirror.conf
(or vi)

changed enabled=1 to enabled=0 and save it, Yum will work properly after that.
