[Spacewalk-list] Scheduling update for updating the packages in spacewalk

[Yakin, Francis]

Hello All,


I understand there is lock/unlock feature on the system, so the system doesn't get any update from the repository.

Is there anyway to setup a schedule in spacewalk for updating the patches/packages from repository.

Thanks

Are you referring to upgrading individual hosts via a schedule?

You can do this via the Systems > Software > Upgrade/Install Packages

From there you should be able to schedule the installation

I hope this helps

Not particularly , we want as a group.
For example, we have a group of systems(A group), currently all systems in the group has about 20 packages need to be updated. Can we stop the “A” group” from getting any update from our repository for certain period of time?

I see that there a feature call “Clone Channel”, how about “Clone Group” and stop any update from repository for a group? Because in the Channel we have multiple groups.

Only choice, I think, is to manager all systems within group at once (SSM) and lock these down via API, which could be scheduled via cron.
