RE: [EXTERN] Re: [uyuni-users] CentOS clients in Uyuni

Hi, thanks for the explanation. I'll wait for the next version with full support for CentOS 8.

Hi,

Already released in 4.0.2, the basic support for "modular repositories" concept of RHEL/CentOS 8 is available.

"Basic" means; - You can sync modular repositories - You can register CentOS 8 clients - You can assign the modular repositories to the clients

However, modular repository structure hasn't been implemented on the UI level yet, so you cannot do any package operations (update, install, etc.) in the GUI. Doing so would cause wrong updates to be suggested by Uyuni. So at this level of support, you need to do the package operations manually from the client's CLI (dnf).

Soon, we'll introduce a more sophisticated way to manage modular repositories via content lifecycle management filters. With this approach, you'll be able to make a selection of preferred modules and create a regular (flattened) repository with your module selections. After these regular repositories are created, you'll be able to use Uyuni as-is with CentOS 8 clients.

Hope this helps

Hey, what about CentOS 8 as clients in Uyuni? Can I manage this OS? And which client tools should I user?
