Thanks Avi.

Here's the output on a machine that I *just* deployed:


[root at vmpr-res-head-node ~]# rpm -qa | grep rhncfg
rhncfg-5.10.85-1.el7.noarch
rhncfg-actions-5.10.85-1.el7.noarch
rhncfg-client-5.10.85-1.el7.noarch
rhncfg-management-5.10.85-1.el7.noarch

[root at vmpr-res-head-node ~]# rhn-actions-control --report
deploy is enabled
diff is enabled
upload is enabled
mtime_upload is enabled
run is enabled


So everything looks right from that perspective.

But, no file deployment?

Hmmm..
