What parts of the system do you want to manage?



If it is packages that are installed on the system, you can take a look at Katello/Foreman: https://www.theforeman.org/plugins/katello/

If it’s only config you want to manage, use Ansible (the RHEL-standard) or Saltstack. Both have The Foreman Plugins to use the config-management within The Foreman.



We don’t use Spacewalk for other things than Repo-management, and a separate config management system for all our system-configuration.



Or if you are adventurous, use Uyuni (https://www.uyuni-project.org/), the reboot of Spacewalk by Suse. That has Saltstack built-in but the server only runs on openSuse (I think).

Satellite is the RedHat-version that is used by RedHat and its systems. I think it's paid or maybe you get it with a subscription, I don’t know.  


 



There is almost always an OpenSource Upstream-version of RedHat-products and Spacewalk is the upstream-version of Satellite 5. The Foreman + Katello is the upstream-version of Satellite 6.



 



But from my point of few, if you are not already using Spacewalk at the moment, don’t start using it for new environments. Use something else that fits your needs.

Because Spacewalk is old (first release 2008) and Redhat has been focussing on the newer version RedHat Satellite 6, The Foreman + Katello and a bunch of other plugins. 




 





But SpaceWalk 2.10 on CentOS 7 and CentOS 8 should work fine.

I mean that spacewalk server is installed on centos7, and centos8 is client subscribing the channel on the spacewalk server.





 





Since Release 8 can subscribing spacewalk server, why spacewalk project stopped ?

Do you mean as client or as server?







 







It cannot be used on RHEL/CentOS 8 as server but CentOS 8 is supported as client and maybe even RHEL8 (never tried it, I use OracleLinux 8). However the entire ModuleStream-setup
 is different in regards to pure RPM-versions in CentOS 7 and below.
