I want to reduce the manual work to do when reinstalling a system and therefore avoid duplicates in my spacewalk installation. The only way to do that is to generate a reactivation key for each system. As far as I found out this can only be done by using the web interface manually. Is there an (undocumented) way to generate such keys automatically for example within a script either on the spacewalk server or a client? An imaginable workaround would be to delete the duplicates automatically. A proposal for identifying such systems can be found in the spacewalk wiki (https://fedorahosted.org/spacewalk/wiki/DuplicateProfiles). Were some of these features integrated or can a list of existing hosts (with system-id) be exported and via a script-able interface deleted? My last and most universal question: how do you handle duplicates in your installations?
this is exactly the thing i am currently looking at - how can a box be rebuilt without having to go into the gui and remove it first, otherwise you end up with a dupe. We rebuild without the use of the gui so this behavior just makes this harder to manage.
if i find anything i'll let you know _______________________________________________ Spacewalk-list mailing list [email protected] https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/spacewalk-list
