In regard to the file /etc/rc.d/init.d/tsdb_local_queue: cpio: rename issue.
I moved  /etc/rc.d/init.d/tsdb_local_queue to
/etc/rc.d/init.d/tsdb_local_queue.bac and reran the update of tsdb.

Hi Team,

I just went through the ugprade from 0.6 to 0.7 and everything seemed to go
as planned.  I have a couple of questions regarding the upgrade.

1) First, a small problem.  When the "osa-dispatcher" service is starting, I
get the following output:

Starting osa-dispatcher: RHN 10106 2009/12/10 12:23:04 -05:00:
('Traceback (most recent call last):\n  File
"/usr/share/rhn/osad/jabber_lib.py", line 254, in setup_connection\n c =
self._get_jabber_client(js)\n  File "/usr/share/rhn/osad/jabber_lib.py", line
311, in _get_jabber_client\n c.connect()\n  File
"/usr/share/rhn/osad/jabber_lib.py", line 577, in
connect\n    jabber.Client.connect(self)\n  File
"/usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/jabber/xmlstream.py", line 464, in
connect\n    else: self._sock.connect((self._hostIP, self._port))\n
File "<string>", line 1, in connect\nerror: (111, \'Connection refused
\')\n',)
                                                           [  OK  ]

  Even though it says "OK" at the end... and at first glance I am able to
login and see things... this has me somewhat disconcerted.

2) During the package upgrade, a couple of *.rpmnew files were created for
cobbler package... and I'm wondering if I should be concerned.  Here are the
files:

  /etc/cobbler/modules.conf.rpmnew
  /etc/cobbler/settings.rpmnew

  There seem to be a large number of new configuration options in the cobbler
config laid down in these new files... without me dumping a diff of the
two... are there any obvious things that need to be included in my running
config from the new config?

3) The "tsdb" package did not update.  I ran into an error unpacking it...
after a few attempts.  

Error unpacking rpm package tsdb-1.27.21-1.el5.noarch
error: unpacking of archive failed on
file /etc/rc.d/init.d/tsdb_local_queue: cpio: rename

Is there a fundamental problem with the package?... or is the mirror to which
I'm connecting having issues?


Any insight into these would be appreciated...
