[Spacewalk-list] Clone times for EPEL

[Coffman, Anthony J]

FYI - on the advice of someone extremely helpful, I tried the channel clone operation with spacecmd and it took 10 seconds to complete the same clone operation that took hours in the GUI.

I thought the Web GUI and Spacecmd were simply calling the same backend API call but it seems like there might be another difference?

Anyway - hopefully this is helpful information to others.

Subject: [Spacewalk-list] Clone times for EPEL

Is it normal for a large channel clone (EPEL 6 x86_64 - about 12,000+ packages) to take an excessively long time?

I did one yesterday and it took more than 3 hours.  I left the office before it completed so I'm not sure how long it actually took to complete.

I've done these in the past and I don't remember it taking very long to complete (several minutes I think).  It's been a while since I did it though and I was probably on 1.8 at the time.

Spacewalk 1.9 on CentOS 6 x86_64 Postgres DB.
