Hello all,
We are running Spacewalk 2.8.
I started an update of my CentOS7 machines with Spacewalk update function
(System -> package -> upgrade) and after update I scheduled a reboot.
The client is running rhn_check (Spacewalk Client Tools) 2.6.8-1.el7 at this
time.
Unfortunately, I found out that none of the machines loaded the new kernel.
I checked on OS level and the new kernel is there:
[root@ ~]# ll /boot/vm*
-rwxr-xr-x. 1 root root 5397520 Jul 24 2018
/boot/vmlinuz-0-rescue-1a6db4473c7f47c39a604d037c7b6bcc
-rwxr-xr-x. 1 root root 5397520 Jun 20 2017
/boot/vmlinuz-3.10.0-514.21.2.el7.x86_64
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 6643904 May 15 05:28
/boot/vmlinuz-3.10.0-957.12.2.el7.x86_64
Buth the entries in GRUB2 cfg are missing:
[root@ ~]# grubby --default-kernel
/boot/vmlinuz-3.10.0-514.21.2.el7.x86_64
[root@ ~]# /usr/bin/awk -F\' '$1=="menuentry " {print $2}' /etc/grub2.cfg
CentOS Linux (3.10.0-514.21.2.el7.x86_64) 7 (Core) CentOS Linux
(0-rescue-1a6db4473c7f47c39a604d037c7b6bcc) 7 (Core)
After I did a 'yum reinstall kernel ' all was OK and the new kernel was default.
Any one an idea why the package upgrade was not able to add the correct
settings to GRUB 2 config?
Thanks for any reply.
Michael
