I've been having troubles on and off with OSA picking up actions for a long
time now (since the middle of 2011). It's been broken completely for months
and I had given up on it for a while so I could focus on other projects.
Recently, I updated the spacewalk client on one of my Cent 5 servers to the
packages from the 1.6 repository (everything else is 1.5). That client started
picking up actions. I upgraded a Cent 6 client and it started picking up
actions. Now, we're back to everything not working again. I've tried stopping
OSA clients, osa-dispatcher, and jabberd and cleaning out /var/lib/jabber/db,
but still no scheduled actions get picked up. I'm not sure what's changing
that causes this to break. At one point when I first set this up, all clients
were picking up tasks normally (even those behind our proxy).
I upped the verbosity of everything OSA related I could think of (jabber, osad,
osa-dispatcher) and I noticed in the osa-dispatcher.log that I keep getting the
following message repeated every 15 seconds or so:
2012/01/24 14:13:39 -04:00 10143 0.0.0.0:

Is it normal for this to happen? We have about 120 - 130 servers in our
environment so this doesn't nearly account for all of the clients (if it should
account for all of them, that is).
As mentioned, server is 1.5 and is running on 64-bit CentOS, Postgres backend.
Any ideas on how to further troubleshoot?
