If the file /etc/yum/pluginconf.d/versionlock.list does not exist, awk will output a diagnostic message to stderr: ``` awk: fatal: cannot open file `/etc/yum/pluginconf.d/versionlock.list' for reading (No such file or directory) ``` Because the os_patching_fact_generation.sh script is run by cron, an e-mail is sent to the root user every hour with this error message. Ensure the file exist and is readable and only in this case check it's content to avoid unexpected messages.
