Environment:
- Spacewalk server and client 1.7.
- Host and server OS CentOS 6.3
Issue: I ran an repo-sync on the spacewalk server to update the CentOS6
primary and update channels. They now show 6686 & 949 packages respectively.
However, registered clients are not seeing the updates. I have cleaned repo and
metadata and removed /var/cache/yum/* on the clients. When I issue a yum list
updates, the caches are rebuilt but only with the original number of available
packages (6346 & 715). The UI shows updates available for the client but the
client itself does not see any. Scheduling the updates through the UI fails
with "nothing to update". I feel that I am missing some step on the server
side but I can't determine what it is. Any thoughts?
