Hello, To be perfectly clear: upgrading from el5 to el6 is possible, I just need some time to plan this. A page on the wiki would be useful : with my el5 backup, what exactly do I need to follow from the installation guide to get spacewalk up and running? What version of cobbler (2.0 ou cobbler-epel) should I install? Do I have to install spacewalk-setup-embedded-postgresql or do i just need to restore configuraiton files and the pg dump? Do I need to restore both postgres and spacewalk databases or only spacewalk one? In fact, a third page on the wiki, like HowToInstall and HowToUpgrade, but to address el5 to el6 upgrade.
Quick reply, I think this thread high lights the need to try and provide a document on our wiki as part of any release where we do drop EL5.

All the tools installed on my spacewalk server (mrepo, reposync, errata scripts and so on) are el6 compatible.

Regards, --Tony -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] <mailto:[email protected]> [mailto:[email protected] <mailto:[email protected]>] On Behalf Of Cliff Perry Sent: Monday, March 25, 2013 10:57 AM To: [email protected] <mailto:[email protected]> Subject: [Spacewalk-list] Running Spacewalk on RHEL 5 / CentOS 5 Hi folks, today we provide Spacewalk releases on EL5, EL6, and current Fedora versions. Due to the increasing differences of EL5 vs. the newest OSes, we are seriously considering not releasing Spacewalk on EL5 anymore, since it hinders our ability to do some other forward-looking changes we would like to do. If we make the current Spacewalk 1.9 the last release on EL5, will Spacewalk users find it hard to migrate to EL6? Feedback is appreciated and will be taken into consideration for how quickly we make this change.
