Waldirio, I do have RHEL subscriptions, but I'm not ready to set this up just yet. I'll probably look into it more after the first of the year, so I may ask follow up question's on how to configure SW for RHN. Thank you.

Daryl Happy for help. About SW support RHEL, in theory is not supported (so this is a RHN Satellite feature), although technically you can add. About be in compliance, since you share rpm packages to your rhel environment, but to all RHEL's that you have subscription, no problem. What you CANNOT do is, you have 1 rhel subscription, use this account to download rpm files and have 100 rhels registered in your SW receiving packages and updates. Ps.: I checked this with redhat a long time ago, would be grateful if our Red Hatters friends tell us something about it. Downloading rpm from redhat, the process is the same, you can configure a local repo and sync them or if you download a rpm package, you can send to channel via rhnpush. Let me know if you have additional doubts.

I understand your explanation. The reason why I'm looking at Spacewalk is because I don't think that I can afford Satellite. I'll look into the cost and see if it fits the budget or not. Your final comment said that RHEL repo can also be add to Spacewalk, but the documentation say's that SW cannot be used with RHEL repo. Can you please point me to the older posts that show how to add the RHEL repo?

There are details about unlimited guests, but we will not talk about it now. When you install SW, you have a certificate to 20k servers, according bellow: ###<rhn-cert version="0.1"> <rhn-cert-field name="product">SPACEWALK-001</rhn-cert-field> <rhn-cert-field name="owner">Spacewalk Default Organization</rhn-cert-field> <rhn-cert-field name="issued">2007-07-13 00:00:00</rhn-cert-field> <rhn-cert-field name="expires">2018-07-13 00:00:00</rhn-cert-field> <rhn-cert-field name="slots">20000</rhn-cert-field> <rhn-cert-field name="monitoring-slots">20000</rhn-cert-field> <rhn-cert-field name="provisioning-slots">20000</rhn-cert-field> <rhn-cert-field name="virtualization_host">20000</rhn-cert-field> <rhn-cert-field name="virtualization_host_platform">20000</rhn-cert-field> <rhn-cert-field name="satellite-version">spacewalk</rhn-cert-field> <rhn-cert-field name="generation">2</rhn-cert-field> <rhn-cert-signature>-----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE-----Version: GnuPG v1 iEYEABECAAYFAlNg/40ACgkQnnKdrwaUeTIXqwCgmRiTmzFuO7x3bitYPWcJFsZeUPgAn0kTzWo7xUGDpedM0No9nEnWa84P=FTXc-----END PGP SIGNATURE-----</rhn-cert-signature>### So, to conclude, if you have the opportunity to use RHN Satellite, you can do this, and add another OS's as repo. Pay attention, each server that you add in RHN Satellite, will user a Smart Management addon. If not, don't worry, you can add rhel repo, according various older posts. Let me know if the answer is satisfactory! :-) Take Care ______________ Atenciosamente Waldirio msn: [email protected] Skype: waldirio Site: www.waldirio.com.br Blog: blog.waldirio.com.br LinkedIn: http://br.linkedin.com/pub/waldirio-pinheiro/22/b21/646 PGP: www.waldirio.com.br/public.html On Wed, Dec 3, 2014 at 7:08 PM, Daryl Rose <[email protected]> wrote: Waldirio, I would like to probe this a little further. Does a person have to have a "Satellite Server" in order to have a Satellite subscription? Or, can a person get satellite subscriptions separate and use them with Spacewalk?

The difference is, using RHN Satellite you will use the redhat support, update, erratas, etc. Check with your redhat sales person about it., you can get RHN Satellite Starter Pack (up to 50 subscriptions), the price is cool! ;-) B'Regards______________ Atenciosamente Waldirio msn: [email protected] Skype: waldirio Site: www.waldirio.com.br Blog: blog.waldirio.com.br LinkedIn: http://br.linkedin.com/pub/waldirio-pinheiro/22/b21/646 PGP: www.waldirio.com.br/public.html On Tue, Dec 2, 2014 at 6:48 PM, YANG LI <[email protected]> wrote: we have different OS such as SLE, RHEL and OL. we would like to manage all our OS patching in one place if possible. is it possible to use spacewalk to get redhat channel?
