[Spacewalk-list] Where are Spacewalk logs when applying patches?

Fri Apr 28 22:12:14 UTC 2017

Hi Chris

OSAd is part of SW, then you can say yes, SW could be real time talking
about client execution / installation / etc, btw will be necessary install
/ configure the packages. By default, rhn will be 240 min, you can decrease
to 60 min.

Have a good one.
