Systems; Schedule - Red Hat NETWORK SATELLITE 5.1.1 Reference Manual

To include a default value, for instance if one is required to prevent errors, you can append it to the
custom information macro, like so:
asset={@ rhn.system.custom_info(asset) = 'Asset #' @}
This default is overridden by the value on any system containing it.
Using the Red Hat Network Configuration Manager (rhncfg-manager) will not translate or alter
files, as that tool is system agnostic — rhncfg-manager does not depend on system settings. Binary
files cannot be interpolated.

6.7.6. Systems

This page displays status information about your system in relation to configuration. There are two
sub-tabs: Managed Systems and Target Systems.
6.7.6.1. Managed Systems
This page is the default display for the Configuration
have been fully prepared for configuration file deployment. The number of local and centrally-managed
files is displayed. Clicking the name of the system takes you to the System Details
Overview page for the system. Clicking on the number of local files takes you to the System
Details Configuration
manage which local (override) files apply to the system. Clicking on the number of centrally-managed
configuration channels takes you to the System Details
Channels page. This allows you to unsubscribe from any channels you wish.
6.7.6.2. Target Systems
This page displays the systems that are either not prepared for configuration file deployment or have
not yet been subscribed to a configuration channel. The table has three columns which identify the
system name, whether they are prepared for configuration file deployment, and a list of the steps
that have yet to be completed before the system is prepared. By selecting the check box to the left of
the profile name and then pressing the Enable RHN Configuration Management button, all of the
preparatory steps that can be automatically performed are scheduled by RHN.
Note
You will still have to perform a few manual steps to enable configuration file
deployment, but on-screen instructions are provided to assist with this step.

6.8. Schedule

If you click the Schedule tab on the top navigation bar, the Schedule category and links appear.
These pages enable you to track the actions taking place within your systems. An action is a
scheduled RHN task that is to be performed on one or more client systems. For example, an action
can be scheduled to apply all Errata Updates to a system.
Red Hat Network keeps track of the following action types:
1. Package Alteration (installation, upgrade, and removal)
