color:black">Hello sidd ,

Thanks for your reply. Basically I am looking at getting some reports of knowing \
which server do not have those patches and then pushing them. Blade logic gives a lot \
of flexibility which i am looking for here.

Only way I could understand which gives some comparison is by creating profile and \
then comparing them with servers. But confusion is the profiles get some packages \
which I am don't know where it got picked from and why only those specific packages.


Regard

<div>There are multiple ways of doing this depending on some related factors. Do \
those 10 packages have dependencies? Are those dependencies already installed on the \
clients? If they are, then just create a custom software channel, add those packages \
to your  channel and push those packages to your clients.<br>
<br>
</div>
If you don't know if those packages have dependencies, then just select those 10 \
hosts in Spacewalk, push packages and then select the 10 packages you want to \
install.<br> <br>
