how to import GPG Keys in Uyuni (RepoMDError: Cannot access repository. Maybe repository GPG keys are not imported)
by Heiner Wulfhorst 12 Jul '21

12 Jul '21

Hi List, i added " https://downloads.linux.hpe.com/SDR/repo/spp-gen10/SUSE/15/x86_64/current/" as a custom channel in Uyuni. If i want to sync its repo with checked "Has Signed Metadata?" Box i always get this error in my reposync log: RepoMDError: Cannot access repository. Maybe repository GPG keys are not imported If that box is unchecked it syncs fine. - I filled out the "Security: GPG" Fields with data from " https://downloads.linux.hpe.com/SDR/keys.html" - added the Key to "Systems > Autoinstallation > GPG and SSL Keys", and - did rpm --import on my uyuni server Is there a way to add more verbosity to that log so i can ensure i really added the right key (should be gpg-pubkey-26c2b797-5669d0b9)? Thanks, Heiner

Difference between SLES Channels "Product-SLES15-SP2-Pool" and "Product-SLES15-Pool": When to use which?

Hi List, i need HPE ssacli on my uyuni managed Systems, so i added this Repository as a Custom Channel: https://downloads.linux.hpe.com/SDR/repo/spp-gen10/SUSE/15/x86_64/current/ As it seems to be for all SLES Service Packs i created it as a child to the parent channel "SLE-Product-SLES15-Pool for x86_64". My managed Systems have been installed with SLES SP2, so i added them to a staged ("lifecycle management") version of Base Channel "SLE-Product-SLES15- *SP2*-Pool for x86_64". 1. Within my Lifecycle Project I can add the "foreign" Child Channel to my Systems. But how would I accomplish this if my systems would be using the latest / upstream version? 2. Is there a "better" way to add Service Pack independent Software to my systems? 3. Should i even use "Product-SLES15-*SP2*-Pool" as a base channel for my Systems, or would it be better to use the general " Product-SLES15-Pool"? 4. What is the difference between "Product-SLES15-*SP2*-Pool" and "Product-SLES15-Pool", how/when should they be used? Hope to get a better understanding of how it is meant to be used so i can avoid possible future problems! Thanks! Heiner

Where to find bootstrap logs
by Stefan Bluhm 12 Jul '21

Hello, I seem to be blind or have lost my patience. When entering "host" (tried IP/hostname), "user"/"password", "activation key" and "Disable SSH.." under "Systems --> Bootstrapping" a blue info message appears "Your system is bootstrapping: waiting for a response..". After some long time, the bar changes to the red error bar saying: "Server error, please check log files.". Where are the logs for the bootstrap attempts? I claim, I searched "everywhere". Thank you and best wishes, Stefan
