Errata Management

Summary

Errata Management should be improved so that a user can know when new errata have been brought down, and can view the relationship between errata and hosts. Errata Notifications should be simplified so that customers recieve fewer coarse grained emails, rather then more fine grained emails.

For these requirements we use these definitions:
  • Applicable: An errata will be applied if the host runs yum update
  • Available: An errata has been synced, but not promoted to where a host can consume it
  • Present: An errata has been synced, but would never be applied to a host by yum update.
