Re: [Spacewalk-list] Need to know about spacewalk internal architecture and why spacewalk is taking time to deploy scheduled actions

Re: [Spacewalk-list] server says client should be updated, but nothing happens

possible to have a post-update script run? You could set up a remote execution script as a wrapper that runs your yum update and then afterward have it run something else. I have often used that and applied to a group of systems under SSM in satellite. — D

Re: [Spacewalk-list] Why does one of my clients have a question mark next to it's name?

deleting and re-registering, it may have been the wrong systemid. The systemid is what actually ties the client to the back-end. If you see something like this again, make sure the systemid in the system profile matches the systemid on the client in /etc/sysconfig/rhn/systemid -- David Rock da

Re: [Spacewalk-list] Time Zone Change

as one of them. If you aren't using any config channel file management, then the answer is probably no. The only thing I can think of would be running a scheduled action to fire off a remote command, but if you didn't do that, the change probably didn't come from Satellite. -- David Rock da
