[Spacewalk-list] Entire Packages are downloading over the Client side over 800MB for OEL5 Latest Repo [SpaceWalk2.5]

[Malla Reddy Madupu]

Hi All

 Environment

SpaceWalkVersion:    2.5

O/Sversion:OEL5.x(Oracle Enterprise Linux)

 We are facing an issue withslow repository build for all the OEL5.x clients. 
Inf act client is building800MB of xml files as below mentioned.

-rw-r--r--1 root root     1302               Jul 31 11:00repomd.xml

-rw-r--r--1 root root        15    Aug  5 03:54 
rhnversion

  But, I understand that only fewMB of xml files should be download. I found a 
bug related to this kind of 
issue(https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=729657) however as suggested 
inthe bug to upgrade the "yum-rhn-plugin-" will not solve this issue.Still 
client downloading all the files and HOST BECOME UNRESPONSIVE. Over 
themonitoring side host down alerts. 

 Guys, I really need somedirection to sort this issue, your time and efforts 
are greatlyappreciated. 

 Best Regards

Malla

Re: [Spacewalk-list] Core group is missing

Hi guys,

Here is my packaging.log:

If someone can test this I will be very grateful. I am stuck on this 
issue to demonstrate Spacewalk at my work. I have no idea of what I 
might have forgotten to cause this.


TIA,

Hi guys,

I am trying to deploy Fedora 23 on bare metal machines by Spacewalk 
2.5, but despite the settings I choose, Anaconda throws an error just 
after partitioning phase, complaining about an inexistent "core" group:


"The goup 'core' is required for this installation. This group does 
not exist. This is a fatal error and installation will be aborted".


I have in my kickstartable tree the repmod.xml from 
http://http://yum.spacewalkproject.org/2.5-client/Fedora/23/x86_64/


Someone can give me a clue on how to debug this?

One quick question: Anaconda grabs its repo files from the main repo 
or not? the mai repo has all Fedora 23 files.
