CENTOS 6.8 use CentOS-Vault.repo

[luisfeeney@gmail.com]

In VPS I have CENTOS 6.7

If I type yum update I get CENTOS 6.9

But for this job I need CENTOS 6.8

1) OK, reinstall CENTOS 6.7

2) Edit CentOS-Base.repo with info CentOS-Vault.repo

3) Change enabled=0 to enabled=1

4) yum update...... run

5) And when finish type
cat /etc/redhat-release

And get
CentOS release 6.9 (Final)

I try replace
http://vault.centos.org/6.8/os/
with
http://archive.kernel.org/centos/6.8/

but I get again
CentOS release 6.9 (Final)

Try with yum -y, yum upgrade, but I get again
CentOS release 6.9 (Final)

I will be very grateful if you have any guidance for me

First of all, there is no CentOS 6.7, 6.8, or 6.9 as independent supported entities. There is only CentOS 6.
One does get CentOS 6 by installing one of its bases, preferably the latest (6.9), and then applying all updates.

What in your "job" explicitly requires an unsupported not-properly-up-to-date CentOS 6?
What is the exact dependency that is broken by an update?

What is the output of

Code: Select all

yum repolist all
