[Spacewalk-list] Antwort: Re: Manage automatic updates of errata updates

[Matthias Gruber]

Hi!

Perhaps I do it a bit compilcated, but at the moment thats works for me

I have a "Base"-Channel with the Childchannels attached to the repos

Base
- CentOS6-Base
--- repo-centos6-base
- CentOS6-Update
--- repo-centos6-update


The repos itself I simply update via rsync every night, after this sync I 
do a spacewalk-repo-sync on that, and apply the CEFS

Then I have a "Cloned-Base" with spacewalk-clone-by-date
ClonedBase
- CentOS6-Updates-till_2016_10
- CentOS6-Updates-till_2016_11

The Cloned channels do not need a repo attached, because there are like a 
static view to the "CentOS-Update"-Channel at time of the 
spacewalk-clone-by-date

All my Clients are connected to the "ClonedBase"-Channel an I fire a 
Shellscript in a cronjob which switches them from Channel 
"CentOS6-Updates-till_2016_10" to Channel "CentOS6-Updates-till_2016_11" 
at given time. Furthermore another Shellscript via cron which starts the 
update via spacecmd system_runscript command.

Well yes quite complicated, but runs :-)

You do not need repositories at the cloned channels, as far as I know

cheers
Matthias

Well the errata is not a problem, I'm using CEFS 
https://cefs.steve-meier.de/  for that.

I had hope for an easy way to schedule the real packet updates in the Gui, 
or what options is available ?

I have looked at spacewalk-clone-by-date cmd, but it clones the channels.
What about the repos, you have to add repos to the cloned channels then i 
guess ?

Would be convenient to use something like clone-by-date in the gui, so you 
get some tracability and be able to schedule it once o month.

Pretty difficult to find any documentation on the concrete steps necessary 
to get this working.

How do you do at your site ?

Sure.. But you have to use the API to find erratas for a system and apply 
them and setup a cron job to do it.
