You're doing yum update for OpenVZ template updates? Care you share how you're doing this? I'm interested in how that works.

From the looks of it, he's a VPS user, not a host.   There is no way to do a yum update on templates (beyond entering a VPS, running a yum update, and repackaging it). 

John posted it above, the way to update templates is:

vztmpl-dl --update-all
