Couple of questions
by Colin Coe
I've created several repos in Katello but on a couple I didn't tick
'Publish via http'. Is there any way of changing this or do I need to
delete the repo and re-create?
Similarly, if I've made an error in the URL of a repo, how can I change the
URL without re-creating?
Thanks

Content view filters
by Colin Coe
Hi all
Do the content view filters accept wildcards? Specifically, if I have a
content view for RHEV-M servers, the only packages I want out of the EPEL
repo are nagios-plugins*. Do wildcards work? (I'm not brave enough to
actually put my RHEV-M servers on Katello yet...)
Thanks

Katello to use upstream proxy
by Colin Coe
Hi all
I'm back having another poke at Katello as its been a while...
My immediate problem is that Katello appears to be ignoring he HTTP proxy
settings passed in at install time. Whenever I create a repo then tell
Katello to sync it, it always trys to go directly to the site rather than
through the proxy. I see in /etc/katello/katello.yml and
/etc/katello/katello-configure.conf the prxoy settings from the answer file.
Also, whats the feature parity bewteen Spacewalk and Katello like? Is
there a table? If not, the things I care about are:
- RHEL builds via kick starting
- file management
- patching
Thanks

No repos available?
by Jason Frisvold
Greetings,
I installed Katello 1.3 (and Foreman) onto a server this past weekend.
I'm able to use subscription-manager on clients to subscribe to the
Katello server, but I'm having trouble with subscribing to repositories.
I'm still a bit new to this, so please help me correct any misuse of
terminology.
I created two custom content repositories, one for my own homespun
software and one for CentOS 6.x. The homespun repo has one product and
one repo. The CentOS repo has one product and two repos (base and
updates). I have sync management set up and the repos sync daily.
If I run "subscription-manager list --all --available" on a client, I
can see both products listed :
$ sudo subscription-manager list --all --available
+-------------------------------------------+
Available Subscriptions
+-------------------------------------------+
Subscription Name: custom
SKU: xxxxxxxxxxxx
Pool ID: xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
Quantity: Unlimited
Service Level:
Service Type:
Multi-Entitlement: No
Ends: 06/21/2043
System Type: Physical
Subscription Name: Centos 6
SKU: xxxxxxxxxxxxx
Pool ID: xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
Quantity: Unlimited
Service Level:
Service Type:
Multi-Entitlement: No
Ends: 06/21/2043
System Type: Physical
And I can subscribe to these via subscription-manager as well :
$ sudo subscription-manager subscribe
--pool=xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
Successfully attached a subscription for: custom
But then listing the repos shows nothing :
$ sudo subscription-manager repos --list
This system has no repositories available through subscriptions.
Yum repolist doesn't show the repo either :
$ yum repolist
Loaded plugins: fastestmirror, product-id, subscription-manager
Loading mirror speeds from cached hostfile
* epel: mirrors.einstein.yu.edu
repo id repo name

epel-subscription-manager Tools and
libraries for Red Hat subscription management.

repolist: 9,187
And trying to yum install anything in that repo fails. What am I
missing? And what logs can I look at to identify what the problem is?
Thanks,
