[Spacewalk-list] Antwort: Re: Package not available for installation even though it is in channel

Mon Apr 20 20:00:12 UTC 2020

Hey folks,

We also have a note on this in our docs: https://docs.oracle.com/en/operating-systems/spacewalk/2.4/relnotes/swk24-issues-memory.html <https://docs.oracle.com/en/operating-systems/spacewalk/2.4/relnotes/swk24-issues-memory.html>  in case you want to increase the memory beyond 4GB.

Cheers,
Avi

You definitely need to look at /var/log/rhn/rhn_taskomatic_daemon.log and see if something is not working properly.  The other thing to pay attention to is /var/cache/rhn/repodata and dates on each subdirectory.  If you run spacewalk-repo-sync or add packages manually to a channel, taskomatic regenerates the repodata for that channel.  Only when the repodata is updated will the clients see the updates.  Also remember yum on each client caches metadata for six hours by default, so unless you run "yum clean metadata" and then "yum list foo-package", you might not see the update.
