Hello Paul, please check that your up2date config file contains the FQDN. Also make sure it is the same FQDN that the Spacewalk server is configured fore.

I get those same messages though on both the machines that fail and the ones that succeed.

That could bring you more information.

Not sure where to go with this. Just to add to my second post - older versions of CentOS 7 aren't having issues, and there's many systems still on CentOS 6 that don't have any issues either. So that leads me to believe there's something about the differences in OS versions that are the root of the problem.

At least that's my experience. Hope this helps.

When I run a scheduled remote command on 50 systems, usually about half of the systems will get marked as "failed" with the error "Invalid function call attempted (code 6)". They all have the same configuration, and every line put in the remote command will run just fine from a command prompt. If I go into a system that has been marked "failed" and manually verify if the command did what it was supposed to do, many times it actually did succeed, but was still marked "failed". And there are some that did in fact fail. How can I address this error to get rid of the false "failed" messages? I looked in /var/log/up2date on the clients that failed and get just these messages at the time the scheduled task failed: up2date updateLoginfo() login info up2date logging into up2date server up2date successfully retrieved authentication token from up2date server _______________________________________________ Spacewalk-list mailing list [ mailto:Spacewalk-list@redhat.com | Spacewalk-list@redhat.com ] [ https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/spacewalk-list | https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/spacewalk-list ] _______________________________________________ Spacewalk-list mailing list [ mailto:Spacewalk-list@redhat.com | Spacewalk-list@redhat.com ] [ https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/spacewalk-list | https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/spacewalk-list ] BQ_END _______________________________________________ Spacewalk-list mailing list [ mailto:Spacewalk-list@redhat.com | Spacewalk-list@redhat.com ] [ https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/spacewalk-list | https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/spacewalk-list ] BQ_END _______________________________________________ Spacewalk-list mailing list [ mailto:Spacewalk-list@redhat.com | Spacewalk-list@redhat.com ] [ https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/spacewalk-list | https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/spacewalk-list ] BQ_END BQ_END _______________________________________________ Spacewalk-list mailing list Spacewalk-list@redhat.com https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/spacewalk-list
