[Spacewalk-list] Update behavior for kernel updates?

[visinix the great]

Hi,

I'm currently in the middle of setting up a spacewalk server. I've been trying to find documentation on the behavior of updates, namely kernel updates.

Does spacewalk simply update the files, and server reboots become the responsibility of the administrator? Or does / can spacewalk reboot the server when needed, like doing kernel updates / OS updates?

Thanks!

Spacewalk does not automatically reboot servers as part of an update
procedure (as per standard yum behaviour).

One can schedule a system reboot through Spacewalk as another action though.
