Push out to all your systems updated .repo files in to disable the public repos.

Hi, 

    I have the same problem with my ubuntu 12.04 LTS clients and Centos 6.6/6.7 clients they still attempting to download from the public repos. 
So what should I do to disable the public repo update. 

Best Regards,

This is also something to put into your configuration management system, assuming you're running one. 

For my environment, have a CFEngine promise that removes the files in /etc/yum/repos.d only if the system is registered with Spacewalk.

Just a side note, next time the package centos-release is updated, it is 
going to run into the same issue again.   The redhat-release does not 
include /etc/yum.repos.d/* files but the centos-release does. 

 Refer to the yum.conf modification in this post, as a work around.

Try to do: 

# yum clean all 

Does it help?

All, 

I am having some issues getting my spacewalk client to pull from my 
internal spacewalk repo.   Despite the system being registered with my 
spacewalk server, the client host is still attempting to download from 
the public repos.   I want updates to come from my internal satellite 
server, only.    Thank you in advance for your assistance. 

Server/Client:  Both Running CentOS 7 
Spacewalk Server Version:  2.4 

1 – I registered the client with my Spacewalk server successfully.   The 
client shows in the Spacewalk WebUI, and the inventory is current/good. 

2 – I have set all of my repos in /etc/yum.repos.d/* to enabled=0. 

3 – When I run ‘yum update’ on the client side, I am still seeing the 
the available updates are being detected on a public repo, and not my 
internal satellite server. 

4 – As this command shows, I am connected to the repo which I would like 
to pull updates from: 

[root at ansible yum.repos.d]# spacewalk-channel -l 
classic_centos7_latest 

5 – Here is the ‘yum repolist’ output showing that I am still connecting 
to public repos and that is where the updates are going to be pulled
