Description Mark J. Cox 2006-11-08 16:37:44 UTC

When Red Hat Network goes into outage mode it's meant to serve a static copy of
the errata pages so that folks can still find out about the things we've pushed.
 However I noticed in today outage that the static copy is out of date (and was
last updated in June 2005).

ping?

Comment 3 James Bowes 2008-02-11 16:17:31 UTC

When last I talked with SOC about this, they weren't aware of when/how these
pages get generated. So it looks like we'll need to put some policy in place.

Comment 4 Amanda Carter 2009-03-24 21:18:38 UTC

Closing this bug b/c this is no longer an issue. We have changed the way outages are done.

Comment 5 James Bowes 2009-03-25 13:31:01 UTC

Reopening. I don't think the recent changes to outage content addressed the static errata pages.

Comment 7 Thomas "Shea" DeAntonio 2017-07-05 15:07:21 UTC

As you may already be aware, Red Hat is transitioning from the Red Hat Network (RHN) hosted interface to the Red Hat Subscription Management (RHSM) interface in July 2017. Red Hat has invested in and seen success from RHN for many years, and used that experience to build more robust technologies like RHSM. 
 
If you have not yet migrated your RHN systems to RHSM or you are a Red Hat Satellite customer, please review the information from. https://access.redhat.com/products/red-hat-subscription-management#migration. 
 
Since we are shutting down RHN, no further actions will be taken with this bug or enhancement request.  You can find additional information at RHSM product page (https://access.redhat.com/products/red-hat-subscription-management).  If you have further questions, please contact support (https://access.redhat.com/products/red-hat-subscription-management#support).
