AIX comes with excellent tools for provisioning and monitoring right out of the box. HMC and NIM. Feature sets are very robust in each of those products. I highly recommend them for any AIX shop.

Hello,
Having some issues with virtual systems. I have regirestered Xen host
which has couple of VPS up and running. DomU were created outside
spacewalk, but I can see them in Virtual Systems section. The problem
comes when host is restarted. Same virtual systems get duplicated over
and over again what makes this list a total mess.
Here is some copy paste example:
---
System Updates Status Base Software Channel
Host: xen_hoster 8 Active Virtual Systems, 15 Total. (View All)
vps3 Running (none)
vps3 Running (none)
vps1 System is up to date Running CentOS 5 Base - x86_64
vps2 Stopped (none)
vps2 Running (none)
vps3 Running (none)
vps1 Stopped (none)
vps3 Stopped (none)
vps1 Stopped (none)
vps1 Stopped (none)
vps1 Running (none)
vps2 Running (none)
vps3 Stopped (none)
vps2 Stopped (none)
vps1 Running (none)
---
As you can see there are actualy only 3 virtual systems, but the list
got quite big after couple of restarts. Spacewalk is located on one of
virtual systems, actualy it's "vps3".
Any suggestions what could be the problem?
Thanks.
Best regards,
Ilja Bobkevic.

Is it possible to get the configuration channel configs to apply before
the last reboot of a kickstart?
At least mine don't get applied unless I manually push them after
installation (even when the system is subscribed to the channel via
activation key).

Stick a "rhncfg-client get" in a post script?

Is it possible to secure directories underneath /pub with something like
.htaccess?

Ok, it seems that if uuid isn't set in xen domU configuration file, than
it is different every startup and spacewalk creates virtual system by
its uuid.

We use a lot of rpm's on our AIX servers - is it possible to build all of the tools necessary to make our AIX servers spacewalk clients? What all would be necessary to turn an AIX server into a spacewalk client (for managing configuration files and rpm updates, not for AIX related patches or technology levels or anything like that)?

Greg,
you'd need all of the client bits for this to work.
- rhncfg-* for handling the configuration files
- up2date or yum - which ever is easier to get built to pull down the rpms
- rhnreg-ks/rhn_register to register the machines to Spacewalk
I'm not sure if there are any server side changes needed to support AIX.
Pradeep, any other thoughts on this?
