Hi! I have some strange error in my opinion... I have cloned channels for my RHEL 7 Servers (server-rpms, optional, supplemental, extra etc.p.p.) My client is behind a Spacewalk-Proxy in the same network as the Spacewalk-Server (doing that for performance and split reasons), several Proxies in other networks to come. However... If I subscribe the Client to the Cloned-Basechannel and the attached cloned Child-Channels (the whole RHEL 7-Stuff) I get all other except the Server-Base-Channel which counts 0 [root@lvasx-bo2 etc]# yum clean all Loaded plugins: fastestmirror, product-id, rhnplugin, search-disabled-repos, subscription-manager Cleaning repos: basis-chnl-os-rhel-7 chnl-os-rhel-7-server chnl-os-rhel-7-server-extras chnl-os-rhel-7-server-fastrack : chnl-os-rhel-7-server-optional chnl-os-rhel-7-server-optional-fastrack chnl-os-rhel-7-server-supplementary Cleaning up list of fastest mirrors Other repos take up 240 bytes of disk space (use --verbose for details) [root@lvasx-bo2 etc]# yum repolist Loaded plugins: fastestmirror, product-id, rhnplugin, search-disabled-repos, subscription-manager This system is receiving updates from RHN Classic or Red Hat Satellite.

I use this proxy also with Centos 6 + 7 and RHEL 6 and have no trouble with those cloned channels at all.... Any clues or hints for me... I also cloned the server-channel again with another name... same result, also a spacewalk-fsck had no success Any help is appreciated.... thanks in advance cheers Matthias ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ METZLER Informationstechnologie Matthias Gruber IT-Infrastruktur & -Betrieb B.
