Howdy, The last time any of my /var/cache/rhn/repodata was updated was Apr 23. This was also the day I upgraded to 0.8 from 0.7 AND ported my database from OracleXE to Oracle 11gR2. Everything else appears to be working. My nightly /usr/bin/spacewalk-repo-sync successfully pulls updated packag

Hi, Thought I'd share this one in case there is interest... The Oracle XE database as we know has the 4GB table limit for user data (including system data related to that such as indexes). To monitor my systems so I don't fall into the seemingly common pitfall of spacewalk suddenly stopping work
