Absolutely yes, sorry for the delay, I'm still working on the client, but following the detailed instruction of Sabine I created the channels for SLES and now they are synced. For now I cannot confirm the problems she had on SP1, but we have a lot of SLES still SP1, so I hope I can give more info quickly.

Thanks, Pietro.

Hello Pietro,

actually I am updating 2 servers running SLES11 SP2 via Spacewalk. I am also new to spacewalk, but I've done some testing with Centos6 and SLES11 SP2 servers :)

I am using spacewalk 1.8.

See: http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/systemsmanagement:/spacewalk:/1.8/SLE_11_SP2/

I am not sure if it works for any other version than SLES11 SP2.

I've added the following repositories/channels, where user and pw are your mirror credentials for using the channels below. You can find them if you login to your account at http://www.novell.com/center (My Products/Mirror Credentials)

SLES11-SP2-Novel (Parent Channel)

https://user:[email protected]/repo/%24RCE/SLES11-SP2-Core/sle-11-x86_64/

Child Channels:
SLES11-SP2-Updates-Novel

https://user:[email protected]/repo/%24RCE/SLES11-SP2-Updates/sle-11-x86_64/
SLES11-SDK-SP2-Novel

https://user:[email protected]/repo/%24RCE/SLE11-SDK-SP2-Core/sle-11-x86_64
SLES11-SDK-SP2-Updates-Novel

https://user:[email protected]/repo/%24RCE/SLE11-SDK-SP2-Updates/sle-11-x86_64/
Spacewalk-1.8

http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/systemsmanagement:/spacewalk:/1.8/SLE_11_SP2/

After installing the following packages I could register my sles11 sp2 server to spacewalk:

newt pyhton-newt libnewt zypp-plugin-python rhnlib rhn-client-tools zypp-plugin-spacewalk rhnsd rhn-setup rhn-check

You may need additional packages (like rhncfg rhncfg-actions rhncfg-client) if you like to use remote commands...

Greetings, Sabine

Betreff: [Spacewalk-list] Spacewalk for Novell SLES

Hallo, I do not find any documentation for using spacewalk for updating
Novel SLES servers. Several HowTos talk about OpenSuSE, but no info
about SLES. Have someone any suggestion?

Thanks, Pietro.

And, if you find this feedback useful, please, can we maybe add a
brief section to the wiki for Spacewalk Client's.
 - I'd be happy to copy/paste, if Peitro, you are able to confirm
that these instructions helped you out a lot.

Regards,
Cliff
