tions. Once the key exists, you may assign a value to it by clicking
create new value
here. Click
the name of the key in the resulting list and enter a value for it in the Description field, such as
"Cube #456." Then click the
Update Key
button.
•
Reactivation
— A System Profile-specific activation key. This allows you to create an activation
key encompassing this system’s ID, history, groups, and channels. You may then use this key with
the
rhnreg_ks
command line utility to re-register this system and regain all Red Hat Network
settings. Refer to Section 2.5
Registering with Activation Keys
for instructions. Unlike typical
activation keys, which are not associated with a specific system ID, keys created here do not
show up within the
Activation Keys
page.
•
Remote Command
— The method for running a remote command only on the selected system.
You must have created a
run
file on the client system for this function to be allowed. Refer to
the description of the
Configuration
subtab of the
Channels
tab for instructions. You may then
identify a specific user, group, and timeout period, as well as the script itself on this page. Select
a date and time to begin attempting the command, and click
Schedule Remote Command
.
•
Connection
— The system’s path to the package repository. Regardless of whether your client
systems receive updates from the central RHN servers or an RHN Satellite Server, it is important
to know if packages are being routed through any RHN Proxy Servers. This subtab identifies the
proxies being used and the order in which they receive updates. A one (1) indicates the top proxy
connected to either RHN or a satellite. If no proxy is used, you receive a message stating, "This
system connects directly and not through a proxy."
•
Errata
— Contains a list of Errata Alerts applicable to the system. To apply updates, select them
and click the
Apply Errata
button. Double-check the updates to be applied on the confirmation
page, then click the
Confirm
button. 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 resched-
ule it, this column will show the status of the Errata as Pending only (with no mention of the
previous failure). Clicking a status other than None takes you to the
Action Details
page. This
column corresponds to one on the
Affected Systems
tab of the
Errata Details
page.
•
Packages
— Manages the packages on the system.
•
Packages
— The default display of the
Packages
tab describes the options available to you and
provides the means to update your package list. If after exploring the packages, you believe the
list is outdated or incomplete (or you installed the packages manually and did not have RHN
install them), click the
Update Package List
button on the bottom right-hand corner of this
page. The next time the RHN Daemon connects to RHN, it will update your System Profile with
the latest list of installed packages.
•
List/Remove
— Lists installed packages from the system’s software System Profile and enables
you to remove them. Click on a package name to view its
Package Details
page. (Refer to Section
4.6.5.3
Package Details
.) To delete packages from the system, select their checkboxes and click
the
Remove Packages
button on the bottom right-hand corner of the page. A confirmation page
will appear with the packages listed. Click the
Confirm
button to remove the packages.
Note
If you are using
up2date
version 3.1 or higher, any dependency-related errors generated by the
attempted package removal are displayed on the page.
