[Spacewalk-list] Clone-by-date issue

[Werner van der Merwe]

Hi list,

I am trying to troubleshoot why packages would not clone upon request.

As an example, the latest tzdata package, currently it is only in my
official mirror channel:

[root at pro-adm9000 ~]# spacewalk-report channel-packages | grep
tzdata-2015[fg] | grep centos
centos7-x86_64-updates,CentOS 7 Updates
(x86_64),tzdata,2015f,1.el7,,noarch,tzdata-2015f-1.el7.noarch
centos7-x86_64-updates,CentOS 7 Updates
(x86_64),tzdata,2015g,1.el7,,noarch,tzdata-2015g-1.el7.noarch
pit-centos7-x86_64-updates,Point In Time Centos 7 x86_64
Updates,tzdata,2015f,1.el7,,noarch,tzdata-2015f-1.el7.noarch

I tried doing a manual sync:
[root at pro-adm9000 scripts]# spacewalk-clone-by-date --username admin
--channels=centos7-x86_64-updates pit-centos7-x86_64-updates --to_date
2015-12-11 -a centos7-x86_64 pit-centos7-x86_64

Gave it 24 hours after verifying taskomatic is running, but still only
2015f available in my cloned channel (pit-centos7-x86_64-updates)

I've gone down the fsck route as well to ensure no data issues exists.

The original snippet for cloning is as follow:

              "centos7-x86_64-updates": {
                "label": "pit-centos7-x86_64-updates",
                "name": "Point In Time Centos 7 x86_64 Updates",
                "summary": "Point In Time Updates Summary",
                "description": "Point In Time Updates Desc",
                "parent": "pit-centos7-x86_64"
               },


With the following defaults:
{
"username":"admin",
"password":"XXXXXX",
"assumeyes":true,
"skip_depsolve":false,
"security_only":false,
"use_update_date":false,
"no_errata_sync":false,
"dry_run":false,
"blacklist": {"ALL":["cglib-*"]
             },
