[Spacewalk-list] System not checking in with Spacewalk

Hello Ananda

Running rhn_check every single minute is not the best idea. I don't know how 
many clients are served by your SW server, but performance wise it would be 
much better to use a longer interval (one hour at least), and in addition 
spread the load - do not let all clients to run rhn_check at the same time. 
Either you can use the RANDOM_DELAY cron variable, or use something like 
'sleep $(($RANDOM%60))m;rhn_check' in the command definition in cron.
