Thanks.  I too have manipulated the logo_product.png to include our company
name.



Can you share how you produce these individualized log_product.png files to
include the host name and still keep the look and feel of the Spacewalk
home page?  I’m using convert from ImageMagick but haven’t figured out how
to manipulate the font/size/colors/etc yet.

Hi there,



We too have a similar set up. We use 4 different Spacewalk servers
(Development, QA, Staging, Production). The way we identify to the user is
by modifying https://<YourSpacewalkServer>/img/logo_product.png to reflect
which environment you are in. Works beautifully and doesn't require any
code modification. Just a simple image replacement. Since it is part of the
main header, it will be topmost and visible regardless of what part of the
spacewalk page you are navigated into.



Hope this helps!

J

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.

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>
<http://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>
<http://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
