I had tried that earlier but did so again just now. It made no difference. The atlas-centos6 channels are all clones from the master centos6 channels. I created an activation key for these master channels (we normally do not subscribe systems to the masters). I then updated my test client to use this new activation key be subscribed directly to the masters – same results. Zero packages listed. In the SW GUI I see the newly registered system. It shows that it has updates available to it.

I have tested against freshly built Spacewalk 2.8 and Spacewalk 2.7 systems and the results are the same. The base OS is always Centos 6.9 fully patched. I believe I have a misconfiguration somewhere but I?m just not finding it. Problem: When I register a client to either SW2.7 or SW2.8 the repos show up without any packages. In both cases the SW server shows the channels are fully populated and the repos cache status = completed. The channel, e.g.atlas-centos6-x86_64, is a clone from the master centos6-x86_64 channel; created using spacecmd softwarechannel_clonetree ?s centos6-x86_64 ?p ?atlas-? ?g [root@kfr-fpr-hc-d01 yum.repos.d]# yum repolist Loaded plugins: rhnplugin, security This system is receiving updates from RHN Classic or Red Hat Satellite. repo id reponame status atlas-centos6-x86_64 atlas-CentOS 6(x86_64) 0 atlas-centos6-x86_64-updates atlas-CentOS 6 Updates(x86_64) 0 atlas-epel6-centos6-x86_64 atlas-EPEL 6 for CentOS 6(x86_64) 0 atlas-spacewalk27-client-centos6-x86_64 atlas-Spacewalk Client 2.7for CentOS 6 (x86_64) 0 When I point this same server to the existing SW2.2 system I get this: [root@kfr-fpr-hc-d01 ~]# yum repolist Loaded plugins: rhnplugin, security This system is receiving updates from RHN Classic or Red Hat Satellite. repo id reponame status atlas-centos6-x86_64 atlas-CentOS 6(x86_64) 50,247+40 atlas-centos6-x86_64-updates atlas-CentOS 6 Updates(x86_64) 6,601 atlas-epel6-centos6-x86_64 atlas-EPEL 6 for CentOS 6(x86_64) 31,592+41 atlas-spacewalk-centos6atlas-spacewalk-centos6 169 This problem is a huge issue which is preventing us from moving forward.Any and all suggestions are very welcome.
