+++ This bug was initially created as a clone of Bug #210342 +++ Description of problem: The subject line of the email that gets sent by check-oracle-space-usage.sh (rhn-dobby) should be reworded. Currently it says "Warning - low space usage on Satellite oracle DB" but this says (to me) that there is plenty of space left. Suggested new wording: "Warning - running low on free space for your RHN Satellite Oracle database" Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): rhn-dobby-4.1.4-3 How reproducible: always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Install a 415 satellite. 2. Exceed 90% usage in one of the tablespaces of the satellite db. An easy way might be to change /etc/cron.daily/check-oracle-space-usage.sh to say "if [ $num -gt 5 ]" instead of 90. 3. Copy /etc/cron.daily/check-oracle-space-usage.sh to /etc/cron.hourly/check-oracle-space-usage.sh 4. Restart crond. 5. Sync a channel. 6. Wait for the email to the satellite admin warning that one of the tablespaces is running low. Actual results: Expected results: Less confusing wording. Additional info: --- Additional comment from bnackash on 2006-10-11 12:39:55 EDT --- Step 2 above should be "Exceed 5% usage ..." The default is 90% usage. But that might take too long. --- Additional comment from mmccune on 2006-12-05 16:34:32 EDT --- moving to uncommitted
Fixed in git, commit f4021f1ed3625aebfed0bedabdb68de1b75325ef.
Confirmed the new text by installing spacewalk-dobby and checking the script in question: SUBJECT="Warning - high tablespace usage on Satellite oracle DB" BODY="This is a notice to let you know that you have gone over 90% usage in one of the Oracle Tablespaces. We recommend to be proactive and increase the size of the tablespace before getting to 100% usage. Please consult the Satellite documentation on using db-control to increase the size or contact Red Hat Support for assistance." Verified in spacewalk 0.3.
Spacewalk has been released for some time.
