Hello, The same holds true for SLES with respect to the 2.9 client as well. The 2.8 client made use of the rhnsd binary, whereas the 2.9 client uses systemd timers. This is something that seems to have changed relatively quietly. Have a good day. -Original Message- From:

I didn't have a reply from Nicole Beck in my email, but looking at the listserv I found it. I have enabled the rhnsd.timer and we'll see if this makes it talk properly. Thank you everyone for your help. Sorry for bothering you with something so trivial. --- Len Ewen Systems

As Nicole Beck wrote before: on CentOS 7 there is no daemon anymore. It's a systemd service with a systemd timer which calls rhn_check directly. See # systemctl list-timers # systemctl status rhnsd.timer -Gerald On 08.01.20 16:53, Len Ewen wrote: Ok, so if I start the daemon, it checks in,

Ok, so if I start the daemon, it checks in, then instantly dies. I look at the osad file and nothing has updated and I cannot seem to find a log file for rhnsd to see if something is going on there so what am I missing? I've removed and reinstalled the rhnsd package and still have no luck.

Ok, so why wouldn't the daemon be running? I forced a check in by installing and removing a package, which seemed to work fine, but if it requires the daemon to be running constantly, I am assuming it won't check in again unless I force it? I didn't do anything special to this box, I literally

The daemon should be running. It should then check every interval minutes if something has to be done. See also within /etc/sysconfig/rhn/ for the interval. (Just right now know the name of the config file). The minimum interval is 60 minutes. Robert ⁣sent from my mobile device​

Hi Len, I had the same problem with centos 7. I think I had to enable and start the rhnsd.timer as well as rhnsd.service in order for the client to check in. This is what I have in my notes. systemctl enable rhnsd.service systemctl start rhnsd.service systemctl enable rhnsd.timer systemctl

The rhnsd daemon isn't running, should it be constantly running or does it pause and then run again? It is enabled, just not running. --- Len Ewen Systems Administrator 1 Information Technology University of Indianapolis (317) 788-3362 [image: UIndyIT.jpg] Confidentiality
