Description Brad Buckingham 2012-12-12 15:06:29 UTC

Description of problem:

The Katello project is planning to migrate to pulpv2.  It is possible that there are tens, hundreds or thousands of consumers registered to a given Katello instance when the server is upgraded.  Each of those consumers would be running the pulpv1 version of the agent.  This agent allows the consumers to receive package/package group/errata actions initiated from the server.  

Based on brief discussion with some Katello stakeholders, the expectation was that the pulpv2 server would interact with the older agents; however, this appears not to be the case.  As a result, with the current implementation, admins would need to manually upgrade the agent on each of the consumers registered to Katello.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
pulpv2 beta

Last we discussed this, we decided this wasn't going to be addressed. Closing out as won't fix.
