I think he means automatical update by crond.
The default yum.cron goes like this:
#!/bin/sh
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
where -d ist the debug level and -e the errot level (man yum)
If you remove "-e 0" you get
"yum is installed and the latest version.
No Packages Available for Update"
as output (only errors), or -d 2 the normal screen output.
