Host still has updates available after applying errata #9

I'm not sure why but even errata is listed and can be applied to a host, running yum update on a machine still shows available updates. It seems that the script reports that errata is already in katello but searching for it doesn't show the errata. I'm running Katello 2.4.1 and modified the script a little bit so that pulp-admin can be run with username and password.

Hi, are you updating the repository after the errata import completion?

I observed this too, and I realized that Foreman must "generate aplicability" after updating both repository and content host. So you need to update your host via web GUI.

I hope this helps :)

Hi,

yes I did update the repo after importing the errata. How can i update a content host?

eduardohki commented 8 years ago

You have two options:

1) Update all packages available into Content Host package details: Go into [Menu] Hosts > Content Hosts > (select your host) > Packages > Update All

2) Apply errata: Go into [Menu] Content > Errata > (select the errata) > (select your host) > Apply

Both procedures run a "Regenerate Applicability" task after completion, which calculates if erratas are available to the hosts.

Please report here if your problem continues.
