In response to Sascha: Our spacewalk server is now working quite well.
Before rollout I tested the update of our Scientific Linux 6 channel from 6.0 to 6.1 (6.1 is called 6rolling, because it is not release yet). New kickstarted clients work well, 6.0 clients can update, but after the update to 6.1 you cannot install any packages. This is what I get: [root client ~]# yum update Loaded plugins: rhnplugin There was an error communicating with RHN. RHN Satellite or RHN Classic support will be disabled. Error Message: Your account does not have access to any channels matching (release='6.1', arch='x86_64-redhat-linux') Error Class Code: 19 Error Class Info: Architecture and OS version combination is not supported. Explanation: An error has occurred while processing your request. If this problem persists please enter a bug report at bugzilla.redhat.com. If you choose to submit the bug report, please be sure to include details of what you were trying to do when this error occurred and details on how to reproduce this problem. Setting up Update Process No Packages marked for Update [root client ~]# rpm -qa | grep release sl-release-6.1-0.1.rolling.x86_64 sl-release-notes-6.1-0.1.rolling.noarch [root client ~]# cat /etc/redhat-release Scientific Linux release 6.1 (Carbon) I don't want to create new channels for every new minor release every six months and update the channel subscriptions of all the clients. How may I tell all updated clients that the channel is now 6.1? - Sascha ________________________________ Has anyone found a good solution to this? I'm experiencing the same type of issue now, having installed Spacewalk on Scientific Linux 6, then running a yum update on the Spacewalk server which broke it's ability to update through Spacewalk. Do we really need to create new channels everytime a minor version is released? Is there a "best practices" document or resource somewhere for Spacewalk? How does the RH Satellite product address this same issue? Thanks, Matt.
