rhn-actions-control
options
Once a mode is set — and for many,
rhn-actions-control --all
is common — your
system is now ready for config management through RHN.
A.2. Red Hat Network Configuration Client
As the name implies, the Red Hat Network Configuration Client (
rhncfg-client
)
is installed and run from an individual client system. From there you may use it to gain
knowledge about how RHN deploys configuration files to the client.
The
Red Hat Network Configuration Client offers these primary modes: list, get, chan-
nels, diff, and verify.
