My comment was in reference to the lack of rhn-outage-list notification 
during the outage.  At the time I made the comment, RHN hosted had been 
mostly down for most of the afternoon.  The outage notification did not 
come until nearly 24 hours of downtime had occurred.  My humble suggestion 
would be to fire an outage notification after an hour of downtime?  At 
least keep folks in the loop on this stuff...

Currently, non of my auto-errata systems have yet to have RHEL 5.3 fully 
scheduled.  The async errata released on the 22nd haven't been hit yet by 
task-o-matic (or whatever it is called now).

I have had 3 support tickets opened on scheduling issues in the past 2 
years which have included a number of bugzilla tickets.  The last of 
which is here:

https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=454053


The follow up rhn-outage email
http://www.redhat.com/archives/rhn-outage-list/2009-January/msg00001.html

states this:

  "Scheduling of Auto Updates has resumed as expected; individual updates
   will be issued over time. RHN Hosted is now performing at expected
   levels."

Is there a webpage that details what these expected levels are?

You continue to go above and beyond here with RHN hosted.  I really wish 
others at Red Hat shared your commitment for RHN hosted.
