RHBA-2012:1408 - Bug Fix Advisory

Topic

An updated spacewalk-utils package that fixes one bug is now available for Red
Hat Network Satellite 5.4.

Description

Red Hat Network Satellite is a systems management tool for Linux-based
infrastructures. It allows for provisioning, monitoring, and remote management
of multiple Linux deployments with a single, centralized tool.

This update fixes the following bug:

• Prior to this update, when the spacewalk-clone-by-date utility was executed

with the "-d" command line option, it failed to select all errata in the
specified time frame. With this update, all errata in the specified time frame
are selected and cloned as expected. (BZ#850506)

All users of Red Hat Network Satellite are advised to upgrade to this updated
package, which fixes this bug.

Solution

Before applying this update, make sure all previously-released errata
relevant to your system have been applied.

This update is available via the Red Hat Network. Details on how to
use the Red Hat Network to apply this update are available at
