[Spacewalk-list] WG: anyone else unable to update clients since bugzilla #1182337

Thu Feb 19 13:30:17 UTC 2015

Hi all

After some days has passed, we discovered more actions that have not been completed.
Interestingly we do see this on other “actions” too (i.e. script run). The task is being picked up by the client and so far we can tell is being executed by the client but the spacewalk server will not mark the action as completed.

Last issue, picked up at 10:39 (script run which took 5s on all other systems) at 14:12 action is still being executed as the spacewalk webUI shows.
Anyone knows how we can further dig into analyzing when / how spacewalk will an action as finished?

Kind regards,
Rolf

Hi Waldirio

Yes, it is. When using local ‚yum update‘ we haven’t seen this issue so far.
Thank you very much for your Help!

Cheers,
Rolf

Rolf, good morning

If you kickstart a new machine (same as you told) and execute yum update manually, works fine ?!

Take Care

Dear spacewalkers

In the last time (after the issue from “nss-softokn” updates? https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1182337 / https://www.centos.org/forums/viewtopic.php?p=214791&f=13#p214791 ) we keep having issues with spacewalk-nodes being kickstarted and then updated via spacewalk.

State is as follows (reproducible):

1.       Kickstart centos 6.6 node (x86_84, spacewalk 2.2 client & server)

2.       Schedule update via Spacewalk WebUI

3.       After some running time, “rhn_check” is still there but not doing any work and spacewalk will never complete the update action.

From our last run, we just could catch the strace-output prior to the rhn_check on the node just before it stopped working:

at this time there won’t be any progress.
Anyone have an idea why this is happening?

Thank you very much!
