Red Hat Product Errata RHBA-2010:0498 0 normal SHIPPED_LIVE Red Hat Network Satellite bug fix update 2010-06-22 14:03:13 UTC

Description Justin Sherrill 2010-03-23 19:35:39 UTC 
Description of problem:

If the auto-update feature is enabled and there are multiple channels synced that contain the same errata a situation will present in which the errata is scheduled the same number of systems that contain that errata.

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


How reproducible:


Steps to Reproduce:
1. Sync  rhel-i386-server-5  & rhel-x86_64-server-5 
2. Register a system to one of the channels.
3. Wait a few days for an applicable errata to be released and run 'satellite-sync'
4. look and see how many times the errata was scheduled
  
Actual results:
The errata should be scheduled at least twice (once for each channel the errata is in)

Expected results:
The errata should only be scheduled once for the system
Comment 1 Justin Sherrill 2010-03-23 20:06:12 UTC 
Need to modify ErrataQueueWorker to take channel_id into consideration for scheduleAutoUpdates()

Comment 10 Justin Sherrill 2010-06-14 21:29:39 UTC 
I think what was happening was that we were running the errata queue task multiple times for each errata (for different channels), so multiple entries were being inserted into rhnErrataNotificationQueue before the emailer could run.  Should be fixed now in master:

Comment 14 Petr Sklenar 2010-06-16 10:44:08 UTC 
testing procedure:

1. Sync rhel-i386-server-5  & rhel-x86_64-server-5 
2. Register a system to one of the channels.
3. Wait a few days for an applicable errata to be released and run
'satellite-sync'
4. look and see how many times the errata was scheduled

Works as expected, The errata was scheduled once for the system. 
Verified on rhel55@i386 and rhel55@x86_64 with sat530 upgraded from errata.stage + packages from errata

Moving to Verified
