Table A.1.
rhn-actions-control
options
Once a mode is set — and for many,
rhn-actions-control --enable-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, channels, diff, and
verify.
A.2.1. Listing Config Files
To list the configuration files for the machine and the labels of the config channels containing them,
issue the command:
rhncfg-client list
The output resembles the following list:
Config Channel File config-channel-17 /etc/example-config.txt config-
channel-17 /var/spool/aalib.rpm config-channel-14 /etc/rhn/rhn.conf
These are the configuration files that apply to your system. However, there may be duplicate files
present in the other channels. For example, issue the following command:
rhncfg-manager list config-channel-14
and observe the following output:
Files in config channel 'config-channel-14' /etc/example-config.txt /
etc/rhn/rhn.conf
You may then wonder where the second version of
/etc/example-config.txt
went. The rank of
the
/etc/example-config.txt
file in
config-channel-17
was higher than that of the same file
in
config-channel-14
. As a result, the version of the configuration file in
config-channel-14
is not deployed for this system, although the file still resides in the channel. The
rhncfg-client
command does not list the file because it will not be deployed on this system.
