Hi Robert,

The new script is working well in making system ID under RHEL6. Thanks a lot again for your help!

You need an update to the lookup table for release names.   I have the updated table on my spacewalk server.   I will send you something afterwhile – I can’t get to it right now.

Hi, This should be a common issue, but I haven't found the solution yet.
 
# gensystemid -u rhnusername -p rhnpassword --release=6server --arch=x86_64 /mrepo/rhel_6_server-x86_64
gensystemid: Release name 6server is not a known RHN release.
 
# gensystemid -h | grep rhnrelease
  -r, --release=rhnrelease     specify rhn release {2.1,3,4}{AS,ES,WS,Desktop} 5{Server,Client}
 
The question is how to use gensystemid to create systemid and then mrepo to download RHEL6 repositories?
 
Thank you in advance!
