OEL4 sync to RHN Satellite server
658195Sep 4 2008 — edited Sep 5 2008Hi all,
I'm a sysadmin that has been given the task to update linux on a implementation of OEL4, however, the business decision was made prior to my involvment to get away from OEL and use RHEL. I've found procedures on Oracle's site to convert from RHEL to ULN for package updates, but can't find anything to reverse that procedure.
Questions are:
1) Is it possible to revert a running version of OEL to RHEL without have to do a full install from RHEL.
2) What are the risks of attempting such a change.
3) If possible, how? I know I would need to replace the up2date and up2date-gnome packages with RH versions. Even tried that, but still getting errors that there are no valid entitlements (where do I indicate the base channel I trying to get)?
