Description Eric Helms 2013-10-09 17:23:58 UTC
+++ This bug was initially created as a clone of Bug #979587 +++

Note that the --name flag is required:

$ pulp-admin rpm consumer package update run
Command: run
Description: triggers an immediate package update on a consumer

Available Arguments:

  --consumer-id - (required) unique identifier; only alphanumeric, -, and _
                  allowed
  --name, -n    - (required) package name; may repeat for multiple packages
  --no-commit   - test the transaction without committing it
  --reboot      - reboot after a successful transaction
  --import-keys - import GPG keys as needed
  --all, -a     - update all content units
The following options are required but were not specified:
  --consumer-id
  --name

This is not useful for users who want to apply all available updates to a consumer.

Instead, it would make more sense if we got rid of the -a flag, and defaulted to installing all updates if no -n flags were passed. This would be more consistent with yum and other package managers' behaviors.

This particular bug is for the Pulp CLI, which as I understand it, is not used by Satellite 6. Perhaps you had intended to clone a different bug?
