[Spacewalk-list] Read only account to access and view spacewalk

2018-04-04 Thread Yakin, Francis 
I created an account with (normal user) roles, but he can not not see the 
systems when he tried to go to spacewalk GUI.
I want him be able to "read" only, can not do any patch or install or upgrade 
any packages, only be able to see(read) what packages or errata on the system.

I tied to modify the user by assigning  a specific group, he is able to see the 
systems, but it looks like he also be able to install patches or packages. 
Which I don't want him to do.

What procedure that I need to follow to make it works?

Thanks

Which version of Spacewalk is it?

Which component fails with java.lang.OutOfMemoryError - tomcat, taskomatic
or spacewalk-search or ...?

Hello Michael,

How did you deleted the package? Just the file in /var/satellite?
Then the the wrong record in database is still there.

You can try spacewalk-data-fsck to if there's any see mismatch between
db and filesystem (and there's also a limited functionality to "repair"
errors).

Re: [Spacewalk-list] color coding the excluded packages in Spacewalk

2018-04-04 Thread Michael Mraka 
Yakin, Francis:

> So, the other 10 packages we exclude showing "red" color or make it  "bold"

Hi Francis,

Short answer is no. The most common way to apply only selected packages
is to create "cloned" channel with the selected packages only and
register clients to it (instead of original - all updates - channel).
