I'm trying to take centos 5 under spacewalk control, Below is a procedure I follow.
Doing the same steps with centos 6 I don't face any issues, but with centos 5 I don't see any channels assigned to the server, even the channels exist and synced with centos repo and assigned to the activation key. Server side: 1. Create repository: Channels -> Manage Software Channels -> Manage Repositories -> create new repository Repository Label* centos5_x86_channel Repository URL* http://mirror.centos.org/centos/5/updates/i386/ 2. Channels -> Manage Software Channels -> Create New Channel Channel Name*: CentOS5 x86 Channel Channel Label*: centos5_x86_channel 3. Sync channel to ULN Channels -> Manage Software Channels -> OEL5 x86 channel -> Repositories -> Sync 4. Create a key Systems -> Activation Keys -> Create new key Description centos5-x86-key Key: 2-centos5-x86-key Base Channels: CentOS5 x86 Channel Client Side: [root@client /]# uname -a Linux client 2.6.18-308.16.1.el5 #1 SMP Tue Oct 2 22:01:37 EDT 2012 i686 i686 i386 GNU/Linux [root@client ~]# cat /etc/redhat-release CentOS release 5.10 (Final) [root@client /]# yum install rhn-client-tools rhn-check rhn-setup rhnsd m2crypto [root@client /]# rhnreg_ks --serverUrl=http://server/XMLRPC --activationkey=2-oel5-x86-key Checking in Spacewalk: Systems -> client -> Subscribed Channels (Alter Channel Subscriptions) -> http://postimg.org/image/5xmjl70bd/ The question is why I see "(none, disable service)" in Base Software channel for centos 5 instead if the list of configured channels? Just to compare, following the same steps I see for centos 6 system: http://postimg.org/image/ff8favx77/ Thanks. -- Disclaimer: Asparona is part of the Deloitte group of companies.
