How to update Linux on Exadata DB nodes?

Hi,
I doing the installation of last FSQDPE patch (April) .
In  "6.1 Updating Oracle Linux Database Servers in Oracle Exadata Database Machine X2-2" I need to register my Exadata with ULN.
My system is fresh (installed in March 2012) and it is not registered in ULN.
And there is no up2date command.
I installed the yum package. If I do 
# yum install up2date
then yum wants
Install     102 Package(s)
Upgrade       8 Package(s)

Is it safe to install into Exadata more 100 packages from public YUM ?
Or is there other way to register Exa* in ULN ?
How do you register your Exadata in ULN?

Howdy, Stranger!
