Description of problem: We are using spacewalk to update machines. As of time being I can see that all machines are up-to-date within system overview. When I run yum check-update on any box I can see: [root@sso-ha1 ~]# yum check-update Loaded plugins: fastestmirror, rhnplugin Loading mirror speeds from cached hostfile * addons: ftp.fi.muni.cz * base: ftp.fi.muni.cz * extras: ftp.fi.muni.cz * hrb-stable: fs11.vsb.cz * updates: ftp.fi.muni.cz tzdata.i386 2010l-1.el5 centos5-updates-i386 Centos5-updates-i386 is spacewalk provided channel.

Expected results: System overview has to show the updates.

It looks like this is a dup of bug 585965 which has been fixed in Spacewalk 1.2. Is the issue still present in Spacewalk 1.2?
Well, we have just upgraded to 1.2. I can see now updates on a few machines. Machines stoped communicating over jabber. Osa-dispatcher is now again full of: 2010/12/10 14:27:41 +02:00 25128 0.0.0.0: osad/osa_dispatcher.process_once('Not notifying jabber nodes',) So we are stuck again with clients not picking the tasks up. I must say 6 weeks spacewalk evaluation is continuous debug process for us. We have reported blocking bugs and howto hacks. This issue can be resolved with deleting all osad enabled boxes from spacewalk, regenerating osad-auth.conf and re-registering boxes. I don't want to do it every time I have to deal with spacewalk server...
So if I read it correctly the system overview issue is fixed. Thanks for confirming it. As for osad please open new bugzilla with your observations and reproducer or feel free to add your comments to another osad related bugzilla if exists. Thanks, Michael
Thanks, update helped. Osad is broken for now. I will report. Thanks, David
Well, we still have this issue. I can see, that one of out system "is missing one packages" within Systems overview. Details are: tzdata-2010l-1.el5.x86_64. From console I can see: [root@vmdatrec ~]# rpm -qa | grep tzdata tzdata-2010l-1.el5 tzdata-2010e-1.el5 [root@vmdatrec ~]# yum check-update Loaded plugins: fastestmirror, rhnplugin Loading mirror speeds from cached hostfile * addons: merlin.fit.vutbr.cz * base: merlin.fit.vutbr.cz * extras: merlin.fit.vutbr.cz * hrb-stable: webmel4.vsb.cz * rpmforge: ftp-stud.fht-esslingen.de * updates: merlin.fit.vutbr.cz addons htop.x86_64 0.9-1.el5.rf rpmforge [root@vmdatrec ~]#
