[Spacewalk-list] Schedule kernel upgrade result in kernel panic

[Ree, Jan-Albert van]

Hello,
I have seen similar behaviour recently with Spacewalk 2.4 and later with 2.5, clients running Scientific Linux 7
For now my 'solution' is to send a remote command that does a 'yum update' on the machines, then all seems to work better.

Only know this when using SLES you can look in /var/log/zypper/history as this is just RPMs that are updated. I don't know if there is anything similar with yum.The rebuild of the initramfs should be triggered from the post install scripts within the RPM. There should be no difference.
