anyone? i also noticed in my logs, that the "tools rpms" arent getting found for some reason.. im sure this is the main cause of the system not registering.

My clients auto-register when kickstarting, you might be missing the spacewalk client tools in your package list?


Also, one problem i was having originally was that new systems would not have the correct time on them, so i have a script in my kickstart to use rdate to update them.


look in the root's home directory for the installation log files, post them here ... they might provide some clues.

well, ive tried using the setup at https://fedorahosted.org/spacewalk/wiki/HowToKickstartCobbler (please correct me if this is not the right guide to follow) the doc says to set up the "tools" distro as a child of my mail rhel-server directory, and someone else stated that it should be this way.. i.e.

rhel-server-5.5
      |
      |----VT
      |----Cluster Server
      |----Cluster Virtualization
|---- rhel-tools <-this has the 4 packages in it. (pyOpenSSL rhnlib libxml2-python # spacewalk-koan)

BUT, when I goto the step that says
Select "Systems|Kickstart|Distributions" and select "+ create new distribution" "Base channel" should be "Fedora 9 with Tools" (or rhel-tools in my case)

I cannot select this because its not a base channel.. its a child channel..

can someone please clear up how this is supposed to work?


Jason

ok thanks, I was thinking thats what I had to do, but I was was hoping there would be something more elegant and
built-in.

This may not be the spacewalk way, but in my kickstart files I have the clients register via:

/usr/sbin/rhnreg_ks --serverUrl=http://spacewalk.some.domain/XMLRPC \
  --activationkey=1-7777xxxxxxxxx

Where the activation key is the appropriate one for whichever channel the client needs to join.

I don't use Spacewalk to handle the actual kickstarting, however.

I noticed that my clients after kickstarting are not
registered with the spacewalk server by default, is there a way to make kickstarted systems register with the spacewalk server by default so that after they're kickstarted, I can just do a "yum install screen" or whatever?

Got your repos with the custom RPMs enabled in both the kickstart
(under operating system) and the activation key (under child
channels)?
well, under kickstart details->operating system, i have

child channels: which lists my 2 custom channels/repos and they have a
checkbox next to them.

further below, I see

Repositories:

and i see the following :  Cluster, ClusterStorage, Workstation, VT


under the activation-keys, i click on my activation key, and click
"child channels",
I see my 2 repos under there..
