The command omd update provides the suppression of confirmation dialogs via the --conflict flag. This flag is passed to cmk-update-config.

If the option --conflict=abort is selected, the update should be aborted if interaction is needed. Previously, the update action Rulesets would not abort the update, if the loading of a rule set failed. An update with the option --conflict=abort will now always abort the update upon detecting a conflict.
