Re: [Spacewalk-list] kickstart profiles resetting to 3GB disk, and vibr0

2012-01-16 Thread Tomas Lestach
 Thanks for getting back to me.  I set the values using the WebUI in
 Systems/Kickstart/Profiles.  I don't kickstart systems often, so it's
 hard to tell when they change.  I notice the changes when I attempt to
 provision a VM.  From the Systems page, I select the host (it has a
 Virtualization Platform entitlement) and go to
 Virtualization/Provisioning.  From there, I see the list of profiles
 available, and, if it has kicked in, I see all KS profile disk sizes
 set to 3GB, with bridge vibr0.  That's before I start to provision.
 That's when I have to go back into Systems/Kickstart/Profiles and
 reset them back.

Thank you for clarification.
I've tried it and do not see any issues.

When you're on the System(Host) - Virtualization - Provisioning page with the 
available guest profiles, you may click on Advanced Configuration, where you 
may override the default kickstart profile values. If overriden, they will be 
used only for current system if kickstarted. (The kickstart profile shall stay 
unchanged.)
Cannot it be your case expecting the kickstart profile to changed? It may be a 
bit confusing.

If you will discover a bug on these pages, I'll be happy yo fix it.

 I didn't do anything - that's the strange thing.  At some point, they
 simply... revert.  I'm not sure how to reproduce the issue.  Is there
 anywhere where the vibr0 is set as a default that I can change?

 Yes, there's a place, but it's hardcoded. This place definitelly isn't your
 problem.
 If you want us to investigate, please write, how did you set the values that
 got changed - via WebUI (what page) or API and again, where did you see the
 values have changed. Was it after or before the profiles were used for
 provisioning?

 I couldn't find any indication in /var/log/rhn/ and /var/log/tomcat6/.
  Any ideas?  System is CentOS 6.2 fully patched.

I'm the only one experiencing this?  I've now seen this issue on 2
CentOS 5.7 servers and 1 CentOS 6.2 server.  All were running
Spacewalk 1.5 and experienced it.  Now they're running 1.6 and still
undergoing it.  All are running Postgresql for the db...
