[Spacewalk-list] Dell OpenManage

Wed Apr 13 10:33:18 UTC 2011

I've tried to use dell-satellite-sync with test installations of Spacewalk 1.2 and 1.3, but with a couple of pitfalls.

You have to edit a couple of lines of the Python code to tell it which channels to use as it is tailored for RHEL.

The other problem I ran in to but didn't have time to investigate thoroughly was that Dell changed the structure of the OpenManage repository with 6.3 (I think) which resulted in dell-satellite-sync trying to put RPMs with the same name but different hashes into multiple channels, which Spacewalk then objects to. From memory, I think it was something to do with the noarch packages, but I can't remember exactly.

Hi all,

I've a lot of Dell servers and i want to provide centralized Dell repo management. I' already use spacewalk for CentOS repos in test env and cobbler in production, and i want to replace cobbler with spacewalk in the next months.
Anyone use spacewalk to provide Dell OpenManage for these servers ?
I've found "dell-satellite-sync" (https://fedorahosted.org/dell-satellite-sync/), anyone use it ? is it maintained ?
