I was following the documentation to set up my channels and repos. I configured 2 RHEL6 repos. One pointing to my 32 bit mrepo server and one pointing to the 64 bit serrver. I created a new channel and then went to the repositiories tab and checked the 64 bit repo and wen to the sync tab and clicked "sync now". nothing seemed to happen. but soon i went to the "manage software channel" -> "manage software packages" page and saw some packages show up. The number of packages increased to a few thousand. But my channel showed no packages. next i went to my channel and selected "packages" -> "add". In the chanel drop down I selected "all managed packages". It shows about 5,474 packages. There is note on the page that says " Only packages of a compatible arch will be shown" But it shows all the packages. I thought maybe it showed the 32 bit packages because they can be installed on a 64 bit system. So i repeated the process with the 32 bit repo and got the same result. Im not sure how to get just the packages from my 32 bit repo into my 32 bit channel. I'm not sure if i'm missing something. I have found several guides online and all show the same process for creating the channels/repositories. -Jim <hr>NOTICE: This communication may contain privileged or other confidential information.
