9.4.2.1.2. rhnpush with .mpm Files

The Solaris version of rhnpush works like the standard utility, but with the added ability to handle .mpm files. Below is a usage example:

% rhnpush -v --server testbox.example.com --username myuser -c solaris-8 \
RHATrpush-3.1.5-*.mpm
 Red Hat Network password:
 Connecting to http://testbox.example.com/APP
 Uploading package RHATrpush-3.1.5-21.sparc-solaris.mpm
 Uploading package RHATrpush-3.1.5-23.sparc-solaris.mpm

Note

Patch cluster .mpm files must be pushed either concurrently with or after — never before — the .mpm files for the patches contained in that cluster.

Use solaris2mpm on each of the packages, patches, or patch clusters you wish to manage via the Satellite, then use RHN Push to upload them to the channel you created for them.
