Apply security updates offline on Red Hat Enterprise Linux release 8.7 (Ootpa) in Production environment

[R. de Kuijer]

The Spacewalk project (Satellite version 5) indeed stopped last year.
Only Oracle stil uses it for their OL distribution for updates.

Follow-up is the Katello/Foreman project you can use freely, or Satellite6 for the licensed. 

The official project site https://www.theforeman.org


Keep in mind that Satellite6 is specially configured to only support RHEL servers, no others.

Katello/Foreman can handle multiple Linux distro's : RedHat, Debian based and more.


Kind regards,

Ron de Kuijer
