Ops Center should be supported on Oracle Linux 6, regardless of update level. Therefore, you should be able to run it completely supported on the latest Oracle Linux 6. And if there is material that says it is, let me know (off-list) so I can chase that down and get it fixed. > Yep, we’re on SpaceWalk 2.2.

We are pretty close to releasing 2.4 for Oracle Linux 6 (the OL7 build will come later). I can't say exactly, because of rules, but it's pretty soon. Like days/weeks. > Thanks again for the information, I had kicked off a “latest” sync and did > notice it was HUGE. I’ve since cancelled it, I’ll take your advice and add in > all the patch channels. Some more general advice: use ULN only for the base/patch channels (and the non-open Oracle channels like Ksplice, when you get access to them). The rest of the channels you should sync from yum.oracle.com <http://yum.oracle.com/> because it's hosted on the Akamai CDN and is much, much faster. The actual content is identical and can be validated via GPG signatures.
