Description

Using Rudder Server 2.4.0~rc1 on a SLES 11 SP1 machine, an inventory of a SLES 11 SP2 node in the WebUI doesn't have any information about Service Pack.

The output is "Service Pack: unknown" or "Service Pack: undefined".

I suppose this is related to Fusion Inventory ?

Vincent is working on this.

A quick look at the code of FusionInventory agent 2.2.x shows that the Service Pack on SuSE is not detected if the "lsb_release" command is available. A simple workaround is therefore to remove the lsb_release tool.

The real fix will be to restablish Service Pack detection on SuSE even when lsb_release is installed.

There may also be an issue here with Rudder detecting the operating system name if it "SUSE LINUX" (returned by lsb_release) and not "SuSE" (no lsb_release).

The content of the <OPERATINGSYSTEM> tag in the generated inventory is:

    <OPERATINGSYSTEM>
      <FULL_NAME>SUSE Linux Enterprise Server 11 (x86_64)</FULL_NAME>
      <KERNEL_NAME>linux</KERNEL_NAME>
      <KERNEL_VERSION>3.0.13-0.27-default</KERNEL_VERSION>
      <NAME>SUSE LINUX</NAME>
      <VERSION>11</VERSION>
    </OPERATINGSYSTEM>

Solution:

  • create a patch for our Fusion version to take care of that, and package that in our distribution
  • long term: made Fusion correctly take care of the SP version.

Don't take care about the first commit in history, it had been made on a separated branch (bug_3035/...)

I made a mistake on my local repository when push it (forgot to change remote ...)

you should rather look here for the technical review: https://github.com/Normation/rudder-packages/pull/1

Jon, I believe you are the only one that can do the technical review for that one.

This point still needs adressing - Vincent please look into it and check we don't have a double problem here, and update this ticket with your progress.

This looks good to me, I have merged it on rudder-packages in 2.4 branch.

This ticket can be closed as soon as the code has been checked for the "SUSE LINUX" value discussed above.

Argh, i thought i updated thé issue about ait, but clearly i forgot.

In ldap-inventory web check that OSNAME contains 'suse',
so it works for both 'suse' and 'suse Linux !

And i confirm as i have tested of both cases
