The system’s path to the package repository. This tab appears for any system in an organization that
has a registered RHN Proxy Server version 3.1 or later. This subtab is designed to help you determine
if updates and other information are passing through one or more RHN Proxy Servers. It identifies the
Proxies being used and the order in which data passes through them to reach this system. The Proxy
connecting directly to the central RHN Servers or your RHN Satellite Server is numbered ’1’.

After confirming, the action is added to the Pending Actions list under Schedule . Errata that have
been scheduled cannot be selected for update. In the place of a checkbox, you will find a clock icon
that, when clicked, takes you to the Action Details page.
To help users determine whether an update has been scheduled, a Status column exists within the
Errata table. Possible values are: None, Pending, Picked Up, Completed, and Failed. This column
identifies only the latest action related to an Errata. For instance, if an action fails and you reschedule
it, this column will show the status of the Errata as Pending only (with no mention of the previous fail-
ure). Clicking a status other than None takes you to the Action Details page. This column corresponds
to one on the
