I'm a complete newbie to spacewalk and I'm trying to figure out whether I can
actually use it or not. We have rhel licenses for all our linux servers and
currently we patch them directly from the redhat website. What I would like to
do, if possible, is use spacewalk to manage these servers - f
Hi - we have a working pulp repository that we currently have clients connected
to, but I would like to see if I can setup spacewalk on a different server to
manage other clients without setting up a separate, essentially identical
repository. Is there any way that I can direct my spacewalk cha
I am a little confused about channels and repositories. I have centos and
oracle servers so i need two different base channels. However, we also have an
epel repository that all servers need to access. I tried creating a new
channel that could contain packages from both the centos repo and th
I am having some trouble getting my syncs to work. The urls that I'm
connecting to are good, but spacewalk often returns this:

nel it says that I have no rpms under my
epel child, so do I need to sync this? This is failing.

I have my spacewalk channels configured so that I have a main channel with
nothing in it, then a bunch of child channels beneath the main channel with all
of my actual repos. When I build a new server I am registering with an
activation key that I configured against the main channel. But then I
Quick question - can I clone an existing spacewalk server and turn it into a
slave or would it be better to build the new server from scratch/do all the
spacewalk configuration from scratch? I would want to use the original server
as the master.
thanks,EJ_
We have some servers in a site where the connection rate is extremely slow,
trying to connect to our Spacewalk server for patching. The connection keeps
timing out with stuff like "operation too low. Less than 1 bytes/sec transfered
the last 60 seconds". Are there any tricks that any of you kn
I'm trying to set up a system where I can use remote command scripts from
spacewalk to update registration of my servers. For instance, I have all my
servers registered to a set of channels that are frozen from october 2016. I
want to update them all to use a set of channels frozen from March

We have some servers that have packages that can't be updated due to app
issues. Spacewalk has these servers flagged as red although they are patched -
we have the excluded RPMs listed in /etc/yum.conf on the servers, so the
servers themselves know they don't need those packages. Is there any
I started using configuration files from my spacewalk server and it is awesome.
Got a question though -
I have a channel called channel1 and I have 2 files in it that are syncing out
to 50 servers. If I add a new file to this channel but only want it to go to a
subset of servers, will this wo
