Hi Kaushal, To keep it simple, you can see Katello the new modern follow-up of Spacewalk. So this is the Content Manager for handling the data and packages for content views, composites, versioning, cmdb, etc. Foreman is the repository server to handle packages, package updates (like yum, apt), connecting and syncing with reposities, pxe bootstrapping and kickstarting, etc. It is part of the Katello suite, but you can also use it as a standalone repository server. In Spacewalk there was Cobbler who did mainly the work what Foreman now does. kind regards, Ron de Kuijer ----- Original Message ----- From: Kaushal Shriyan (kaushalshriyan@xxxxxxxxx) Date: 13-09-23 02:31 To: ron@xxxxxxxx, General Red Hat Linux discussion list (redhat-list@xxxxxxxxxx) Subject: Re: Re[2]: Apply security updates offline on Red Hat Enterprise Linux release 8.7 (Ootpa) in Production environment H On Tue, Sep 12, 2023 at 7:19 AM Kaushal Shriyan <kaushalshriyan@xxxxxxxxx> wrote: > > > On Tue, Sep 12, 2023 at 5:32 AM R. de Kuijer <postmaster@xxxxxxxx> wrote: > >> The Spacewalk project (Satellite version 5) indeed stopped last year. >> Only Oracle stil uses it for their OL distribution for updates. >> >> Follow-up is the Katello/Foreman project you can use freely, or >> Satellite6 for the licensed. >> >> The official project site https://www.theforeman.org >> >> >> Keep in mind that Satellite6 is specially configured to only support RHEL >> servers, no others. >> >> Katello/Foreman can handle multiple Linux distro's : RedHat, Debian based >> and more. >> >> >> Kind regards, >> >> Ron de Kuijer >> >> > Thanks Ron for the email response with a detailed explanation.
