Why packages listed in activation key not installed on Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7 client from RHN Satellite server?
Issue
- Upgraded Satellite to version 5.6 and created kickstart profile and activation key for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7 client.
- RHN tools is highlighted in activation keys child channel.
-
The client will install Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7 OS and gets registered to RHN Satellite server. But the packages listed below in activation key not get installed.
osad rhncfg rhncfg-actions rhncfg-client
-
As the required packages are not getting installed, then deployment of configuration files to client fails from activation key.
- What is the problem with Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7 activation key? Why the rhncfg* packages listed in activation key not get installed? Where RHEL 6 kickstart and activation key works just fine in Satellite server.
Environment
- Red Hat Satellite 5.6
- Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7 Beta
