Exactly as I suspected. Thank you very much for clearing that up. Big production deploy (over 6000 assets) waiting on my reassurance ;)
Great to hear that this group is active! I'll definitely be active with questions (and answers where I'm knowledgeable enough). Jody McIvor Senior Systems Admin.

Message-ID: <d29770dbed2d4463849e577cdb463...@bclc.com> Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" Hi All, I first stopped into the IRC but it was a ghost town. Hopefully not so, here :) In SCCM (Its been a while), if I added a package/app/etc, any asset subscribed to the parent of that package would eventually automatically receive it. My question about Spacewalk is, if I put an app on spacewalk under a main software channel, will it eventually force that app to all subscribed systems, or will they only receive once I schedule it to be pushed to selected systems (SSM)? Basically wondering if its safe/normal practice to have two systems subscribed to one channel, adding an app to that channel and having it only installed onto one of said two systems.

Channels in Spacewalk work like normal repositories do. They make software packages available to the clients that are subscribed to them. There is no such thing as an automatic package installation with Spacewalk. So you can put new packages and even multiple versions of the same package into a channel. These will become available to the client(s) but you have to trigger the installation.
