You're probably having a network problem.

The resolv addresses you are using are not working properly, or the repo server you are connecting to is dead.

In /etc/resolv.conf, change your resolv addresses to 8.8.8.8 and 8.8.4.4.

Run the commands.

Code:
yum clean metadata
yum clean all
Try again after you run update.

Hello,

To update, it looks like the issue was related to a missing "redhat-rpm-config" RPM. Installing the RPM and forcing a cPanel update via "/scripts/upcp --force" addressed the issue.

Thank you.
