Hi Steve,

I was unaware that this might be an issue. Our enterprise uses Centos clients as well and thousands of them. Your question concerned me so I did some googling. I assume you have done the same. I came up with:
https://www.unixsysadmin.com/rhel-8-resources/

In this document they touch on Spacewalk support on RedHat 8 (RHEL/CENTOS) and although you can't run the SERVER on it, they say client is supported.

Are you aware of something I should be concerned about?

The important caveat is that you shouldn't use Spacewalk for any package operations if you use any of the modular repos. Since the modularity logic is not implemented there, it might suggest you incorrect updates. You should use the client's CLI to do updates instead.

Guy Matz:

Hello!  Does anyone know how to schedule an action with the XMLRPC
API?  I see actionchains, but not plain old actions . . .  does that exist?

Hello,

https://spacewalkproject.github.io/documentation/api/2.9/handlers/SystemHandler.html
See schedule* methods.

Thanks,
Guy

Matthias Gruber:

Hi!

Perhaps thats a known bug, but the Update-Sign in my System
Groups-Page is always green

But when I have a look into a group e.g. 02-uc4-patched

The Update-Sign is correct.
Yes I cleared the cache, and also used other Browser, same result

What did I miss or did I forget somthing to configure ?

That is a SW 2.9 on a CentOS 7

Hello Matthias,

I think it's issue fixed by
https://github.com/spacewalkproject/spacewalk-wiki/pull/17

Cheers
Matthias
