[Spacewalk-list] rhn_check and yum lock

[Zhou, Rui A. (NSB - CN/Shanghai)]

Hi：dears
  One problem I encountered was that if the process of rhn_check did not start, the client would report the system not checking in with Spacewalk. But If I start it(/bin/systemctl restart rhnsd.service), the yum execution would be locked.
I understand that the rhn_check  process starts automatically every four hours, but sometime it doesn't seem like that. So who knows about the process or what information can be shared? Thank you very much!
