Description Chris Duryee 2013-07-17 12:54:41 UTC
Description of problem:

(from rwj)

>> The output from this cron job, which runs every 10 minutes spits out its
>> info to standard out. Cron's default behavior is to mail standard out to
>> the user who the cron job is invoked as; eventually leading to
>> /var/spool/mail/splice becoming large. We should probably redirect this
>> to a logfile or /dev/null unless it actually *is* an error. (No news is
>> good news)

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):  spacewalk-splice-tool-0.25-1

How reproducible: every time


Steps to Reproduce:
1. allow cron to execute sst

Actual results: output that fills /var/spool/mail/splice


Expected results: no output, unless there was an error
