[Spacewalk-list] Spacewalk-list Digest, Vol 60, Issue 24

Wed May 15 16:51:15 UTC 2013

Hi Shawn, 

Have you tried reducing the number of entries shown per page? This can be 
set to as low as 5 in Users > YourUser > preferences > RHN Satellite List 
Page Size.   This controls how many entries, like systems, would be 
displayed per page in a list context.  Show entries per list page 50 is 
where mine is set. I had trouble trying to set it to even 100, let alone 
500, which is max. 

I would try to set to 25 then test and see if you can get to the events?

Thanks,

Thanks, Todd.  I can't even get the 'completed actions' screen to come up. 
 I don't ever get the opportunity to select items to archive, then delete.

Shawn,

If you're just trying to delete them, I would first archive them then 
delete. Spacewalk 1.8 added this feature.

I had to select 100 at a time after I archived them though, or I would get 
the same errors. I had over 15000 actions and was able to archive them all 
at once, then I deleted by selecting 100 at a time.

I also then went to 'Task Schedules' and cleaned up or changed how often 
some tasks run.

hope this helps?

Subject: [Spacewalk-list] Need to sync SW data via PUSH between

I'm just starting to investigate how to synchronize between spacewalk 
servers.  And I think I have a problem.  From what I've read it appears 
that the only way to synchronize data using the 'satellite-sync' command 
is via a PULL from the master server by a slave server.  This is not 
possible in my environments.

We have test,  staging, and production environments, each physically 
separate and completely network independent and we only allow connections 
from test to production or test to staging, not the other way around. Our 
normal operating procedures require us to apply all updates to the test 
environment, work out any issues, then push those updates to our staging, 
check everything again, and then finally from test to our production 
environments.  Currently our sole Spacewalk instance exists in our test 
environment and we want to implement slaves in both staging and 
production.

So is it possibly to use the 'satellite-sync' tool to PUSH updates to 
slaves from a master server?  If not, what other options do I have to sync 
my software channels, packages, kickstart configurations, and 
configuration channels between environments?

Thx
Chris.
