Using Foreman 1.15.4 and Katello 3.4.5
I am finding that the Content Hosts aren't updating after a point version
update for a Content View.
I have a Content View "Base Centos" which includes a bunch of repos,
including EPEL.
It contributes to a Composite Content View "Workers" which includes a
couple of other repos.
Recently an Errata came in for something - maybe inxi. Using the webgui:
-
check the appropriate box
-
choose "apply errata"
-
choose content hosts to apply it to, "next"
-
confirm the Content View that will be updated
-
wait while background magic happens (" Incremental Update of 2 Content
View Version(s)" and a promotion of hosts to new version from 27.0 to 27.1
for Base and from 33 to 33.1 for Workers) -
once this is complete, I expect a yum update to work, it doesn't. I try:
yum upgrade and yum clean all; subscription refresh; yum upgrade -
I try going back to the web UI, and from within the errata, choose
content hosts, then select a host and "apply to hosts". The next page
"confirm" button clicks but doesn't do anything.
So, I think the "subscription refresh" works when a CCV has had a full
version update - from X to X+1 (27.0 to 28.0)
But the point updates don't naturally flow onto the hosts in question.
How might I get those hosts to update?
cheers

------ "The antidote to apocalypticism is *apocalyptic civics*. Apocalyptic civics is the insistence that we cannot ignore the truth, nor should we panic about it. It is a shared consciousness that our institutions have failed and our ecosystem is collapsing, yet we are still here — and we are creative agents who can shape our destinies. Apocalyptic civics is the conviction that the only way out is through, and the only way through is together. "Greg Bloom @greggish
