Description Duncan Innes 2013-09-11 13:11:54 UTC

Description of problem: OSAD has been mentioned in terms of being replaced before.  It is sticky, cranky, problematic and generally the least reliable part of a Spacewalk/Satellite installation.

This RFE will hopefully reignite discussion around the replacement of OSAD which, to my knowledge, hasn't gone anywhere since https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=453459 was closed as WONTFIX.  Well . . . if it's not Func, what should it be?  There are several usability improvements which should be looked at for a replacement tool.
