I would suggest opening an SR with My Oracle Support (if you have an Oracle Linux support subscription) and getting them to look more closely into what's going on for this instance.

Yes, only spacewalk managed repos are enabled.

Hey,
That key is system-specific and managed by Spacewalk, and it allows Spacewalk to reprovision this specific server.
Out of curiousity, what happens if you run "dnf update" on the server? It's probably worth running "dnf repolist -v" on that server to ensure that only the Spacewalk-managed repos are enabled and the yum.oracle.com ones are not.
Just a note that you should always sync the entire repo for OL8. Using the --latest parameter (or checking the box in the UI) will break the modular metadata. We mention this in our docs too: https://docs.oracle.com/en/operating-systems/oracle-linux-manager/2.10/admin/chap-chan-repo.html#syncswcsrs
Thanks,
Avi

1. I have named the activation key like this, but one key that appears in the kickstart not in the list, I don’t know where it comes from and why should it exists((1-fd833f6fb24dbd1f8807f36d434049a4).
[cid:image001.jpg at 01D6FEE5.F695B2E0]
2. If you click on the "143" in the table, does Spacewalk provide a list of the packages?
No, there’s no package list, like this:
[cid:image002.jpg at 01D6FEE5.F695B2E0]
But , If I first choose the testol83 then select the manage and then press upgrade, there are packages needs upgrade like below:
[cid:image003.jpg at 01D6FEE5.F695B2E0]
3. I tried the command, but it still exists.
[root at testol83 ~]# rhn-profile-sync -v
Updating package profile...

First, I strongly encourage you to name your activation keys instead of using the ones Spacewalk auto-generates. It makes it a lot easier for troubleshooting. :)
Second, that inconsistency is interesting because there are no errata associated with the 143 packages that Spacewalk thinks are available. If you click on the "143" in the table, does Spacewalk provide a list of the packages? I would also suggest manually running "rhn-profile-sync -v" on testol83.tltd.com to see if that resolves the inconsistency.

1.You mean that 1-296a3f05d95aec9f804024a596acc810 is host-specific one and (1-fd833f6fb24dbd1f8807f36d434049a4 is generic ?
2.In my env, there is a problem maybe related to the above question:
One os which registered with 1-296a3f05d95aec9f804024a596acc810 appears that there are 143 packages needs update as below:
[cid:image005.jpg at 01D6FEE5.F695B2E0]
But when select the system, you find that the system is up to date like below:
[cid:image006.jpg at 01D6FEE5.F695B2E0]
[cid:image007.jpg at 01D6FEE5.F695B2E0]
Why ???
Thanks.

One of them is generic (for Oracle Linux 8). The other is host-specific and is used to rebuild the host, if triggered. It will store the last known package configuration of that host, so if you reprovision it using Spacewalk, that activation key will ensure the same package set is installed.

Hi ,everyone:
This is part of the kickstart which is auto produced by spacewalk.
try: # python 2
import xmlrpclib
except ImportError: # python 3
import xmlrpc.client as xmlrpclib
import shutil
import sys
import os.path
try:
old_system_id = "/tmp/rhn/systemid"
new_system_id = "/mnt/sysimage/root/systemid.old"
tmp_key = "/mnt/sysimage/tmp/key"
new_keys = "1-fd833f6fb24dbd1f8807f36d434049a4,1-296a3f05d95aec9f804024a596acc810"
for key in new_keys.split(','):
if key.startswith('re-'):
sys.exit(0)
You can see that there are tow keys, but when I create the kickstart, I only choose one key(1-296a3f05d95aec9f804024a596acc810) just like below pic, and the other one(1-fd833f6fb24dbd1f8807f36d434049a4) does not exists in my spacewalk system.
But why the spacewalk produce such a kickstart file ? Why ?
Could you give me some explain ?
Thanks.
