<div dir="ltr">If you have a lot of packages or channels, or even if you don't, I would recommend increasing the value of the memory settings on taskomatic. From my experience they are very low by default... in /usr/share/rhn/config-defaults/rhn_taskomatic_daemon.conf update the values wrapper.java.maxmemory and wrapper.java.initmemory to larger values (I have mine to 1GB min/4GB max, but Red Hat recommends less, at <a href="https://access.redhat.com/solutions/43122">https://access.redhat.com/solutions/43122</a>).<div><br></div><div>Also, in /etc/rhn/rhn.conf, there are some sparsely documented values that can be increased as well:</div><div><br></div><div><div>taskomatic.errata_cache_max_work_items = 50</div><div>taskomatic.channel_repodata_max_work_items = 50</div></div><div><br></div><div>Hope that helps and avoids you having to restart it so often.</div></div><br><div class="gmail_quote"><div dir="ltr">On Mon, Nov 21, 2016 at 8:29 AM Romo, Gary - DEN <<a href="mailto:Gary.Romo@flydenver.com">Gary.Romo@flydenver.com</a>> wrote:<br></div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex">To force the re-application of packages and erratas in the database, use<br class="gmail_msg">

Hi,<br class="gmail_msg">
<br class="gmail_msg">
<br class="gmail_msg">
what is the correct way to get spacewalk to rebuild the repo cache of a, or all channels ?<br class="gmail_msg">
<br class="gmail_msg">
We have channels where we import packages a few times a day and most of the time it takes a long time until these packages are available on the subscribed systems.<br class="gmail_msg">
<br class="gmail_msg">
Currently restarting the taskomatic service helps (not always ..)<br class="gmail_msg">
