Get a list of software installed with Redhat Satellite

Hello all,

I'm new to Linux and trying to find my way.

My organization is using a Redhat Satellite server to manage our linux environment, consisting of RHEL 5 and 6.

I'm trying to find a way within satellite, to pull a list of all packages that are currently installed on our servers. I'm not finding much help from the Satellite documentation. Would anyone have a clue how to accomplish this?

Welcome to LQ.

An alphabetic list : $ rpm -qa | sort > installed-packages.txt

A list with install dates : $ rpm -qa --last > last-packages.txt

Thanks for the reply knudfl. I'm not sure it's exactly what I'm looking for. I'm trying to have a way of doing it straight from satellite so that I can get this info from all of my linux servers at once--instead of having to hop on each server individually and run this command.

Code:

ssh user@host "rpm -qa sort" >> installed-packages.txt
