4.4. Using the Red Hat Satellite Command Line Tool (spacecmd)
The
spacecmd tool interacts with Red Hat Satellite's XML-RPC API. This provides users with a simple way of executing Satellite functionality from the command line.
Note
An initial run of
spacecmd requires your username and password. This opens a session ticket for the chosen user and all subsequent usage of spacecmd uses this session until it expires, after one hour. Change the user and password using the -u USERNAME and -p PASSWORD options.
spacecmd uses two methods of execution.
From the Interactive Shell
Run
spacecmd alone to start the interactive shell.
[root@satellite57 ~]# spacecmd
Welcome to spacecmd, a command-line interface to Spacewalk.
Type: 'help' for a list of commands
'help <cmd>' for command-specific help
'quit' to quit
INFO: Connected to https://localhost/rpc/api as admin
spacecmd {SSM:0}>
This displays the
spacecmd prompt, which also indicates the number of system attached to the System Set Manager (SSM).
To run commands, enter them into the shell. For example, to list all systems, run
system_list:
spacecmd {SSM:0}> system_list
system001.example.com
system002.example.com
system003.example.com
system004.example.com
...
To list the base channel for a system, run
system_list followed by the name of the system:
spacecmd {SSM:0}> system_listbasechannel system001.example.com
rhel-x86_64-server-6
List all commands using the
help command.
From the Terminal
Execute
spacecmd commands directly from the your Linux terminal. For example, use spacecmd system_list to list all your systems:
[root@satellite57 ~]# spacecmd system_list INFO: Connected to https://localhost/rpc/api as admin system001.example.com system002.example.com system003.example.com system004.example.com ...
Or list the base channel for a system with
spacecmd system_listbasechannel systemname:
[root@satellite57 ~]# spacecmd system_listbasechannel system001.example.com INFO: Connected to https://localhost/rpc/api as admin rhel-x86_64-server-6
List all commands with
spacecmd help.
