<p class="MsoNormal">Hi all<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">I’ve recently built a <b>SW 2.8</b> environment on a RHEL 7 server, added Channels/Repositories for
<b>RHEL/Oracle Linux 6/7</b> and successfully patched relevant client systems. I now want to look at provisioning RHEL/Oracle Linux 6/7<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">systems – I won’t be using a DHCP server. Can anyone supply simple instructions for doing this as I can’t seem to get a proper angle on it? I was envisaging using the newly created repositories created for patching but when I look in Systems
> Kickstart > Create Kickstart Profile I see this:<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><b>Base Channel: No Kickstartable Channels found.<o:p></o:p></b></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><b>Kickstartable Tree: No trees were found for the selected channel<o:p></o:p></b></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">I learnt that this was because I need to “enable” the repositories to be kickstartable by re-syncing with relevant option but this give message “Kickstartable tree not detected (no valid treeinfo file)” for bot Red Hat and Oracle Linux
channels (see below). Do I need to sync from different base channels perhaps?<o:p></o:p></p>
