So I've spent a bit of time getting my 2 spacewalk servers 'connected'. I have ISS mode configured so the channels are syncing between the two servers, the next thing I moved to was 'failover'
There's not much information on the web or on this list pertaining to quite whether it works but documentation here suggests it can with the correct version of up2date. https://access.redhat.com/documentation/en-US/Red_Hat_Network/5.0.0/html/Client_Configuration_Guide/s2-client-config-failover.html The problem is the 2 url setting never sticks, the client machine needs to be registered with both spacewalk servers to receive the updates, and in the process of registration the altered /etc/sysconfig/rhn/up2date file is reverted. If I put the urls back again, then shutdown the primary spacewalk server and try to update from the secondary it goes back to saying I'm not registered. Does this method actually work any more or has it been superseeded? Cheers, Stu
