To find out what's locking up yum, try running:

# ps aux | grep yum

 

Note the PID number of the process and run this to kill the process:

# kill <insert PID number>

 

Check to see if the process has been killed by rerunning:

# ps aux | grep yum

 

If not, rinse and repeat until the process is killed; some processes can be very stubborn.
