Spacewalk

Spacewalk :

Spacewalk is open source systems management software developed by Red Hat. It is the upstream version of the RHN Satellite Server.

Spacewalk includes the web interface and back-end, as well as RHN Proxy Server and associated client software of Satellite and makes them available to users and developers under FOSS license.

The relationship between Spacewalk and Satellite is analogous to the relationship between Fedora and Red Hat Enterprise Linux. Whereas Satellite manages only RHEL and Solaris systems, Spacewalk manages Fedora, CentOS, SUSE and Debian systems
