[Spacewalk-list] Help with Visually Identifying a Spacewalk Server

[William Hongach]

An alternative that I prefer would be to modify spacewalk.css on each server to place an image or name value relating to the specific server in the header class.  This way that change would propagate to every page within the Spacewalk portal as feedback to the user regarding which server they were interacting with.

A basic modification to a page header or site header should suffice.  Hope that helps.

Subject: [Spacewalk-list] Help with Visually Identifying a Spacewalk Server

Greetings Spacers:

Base OS:  Centos 7.6
Spacewalk: 2.9

I have multiple Spacewalk servers in various data centers.  I am trying to figure out a way to visually identify a SW server in the GUI.

Here’s the dilemma:  a user goes to a URL like spacewalk.us3.cloud.kyriba.com<http://spacewalk.us3.cloud.kyriba.com> and is presented the standard SW login screen.  Nowhere on that screen does it indicate the name of the server, e.g. spacewalk.us3. The user may have typo’d and gone to spacewalk.us2.cloud.kyriba.com<http://spacewalk.us2.cloud.kyriba.com> by mistake. Unless they are paying close attention to the URL then they may be on the wrong server.

I would like the “Welcome to Spacewalk” on the main login page to say something like “Welcome to the US3 Spacewalk Server”……to better visually identify the specific server.

So far I have not found a solution to this.  Anyone have an idea?

Thanks
