Other relevant data:

I have registered around 10 systems to the foreman & have enabled email notifications for erratas.
It has been observed that only one hosts is seen in the mail. (Snippet attached)

Request you to help me understand why there are no other hosts which can be seen in this mailer. OS patches applied to the system registered are probably the same.
Let me know if any other details are required.

Thanks, KS

Any advice/suggestions, please?

Hi @khulsat ,

Is the errata report wrong in only the email? Or is the reported errata count also zero in Foreman itself?

Is this consistently reproducible?

Hi @iballou,

When I check on the system by using yum check-update, I could see there are 15-20 packages available for update. However when I check on the Foreman, it shows nothing. Attaching snippet herewith for your reference.
Same data is shown in email trigger which is there at Foreman webpage.

The “Overview” tab wouldn’t show the packages that need updates, only the errata. Do you not see the packages that are applicable/installable in the Content tab under “Packages”?

Also, another thing to check is if what you’re expecting is under “applicable” instead of “installable”.

Seen this is a CentOS 7 host. Be aware that errata does not come from the CentOS repos but has to be imported separately. But maybe you have solved this already?
