Instead of re-registering each server remotely. Could you just switch their base channels or add/remove child channelsfrom the spacewalk itself?

BASE:
spacecmd -q -s  myspacewalk.domain.com softwarechannel_listbasechannels
spacecmd -q -s myspacewalk.domain.com system_listbasechannel $myserver
spacecmd -q -s myspacewalk.domain.com system_setbasechannel $myserver $mynewbase  (add -y to not prompt you)

If you want to do this in BULK... ALL servers in a channel
spacecmd -q -s myspacewalk.domain.com system_setbasechannel channel:$myoldbase$mynewbase (add -y to not prompt you)CHILD: 
softwarechannel_listchildchannels
system_listchildchannels
system_addchildchannels
system_removechildchannelsIf you want to do this in BULK... ALLservers in a channel
spacecmd -q -s myspacewalk.domain.com system_addchildchannels channel:$myoldchannel$mynewchannel (add -y to not prompt you)
spacecmd -q -s myspacewalk.domain.com system_removechildchannels channel:$mynewchannel$myoldchannel (add -y to not prompt you)

Thanks and good luck

I'm trying to set up a system where Ican use remote command scripts from spacewalk to update registration ofmy servers.  For instance, I have all my servers registered to a setof channels that are frozen from october 2016.  I want to update themall to use a set of channels frozen from March 2017.  I can do thisby sending a remote command from spacewalk with the new activation keyand using --force flag - but this creates a new registration in spacewalk. The old one is still there.  Does anyone know of a good wayto do a group update to a new activation key without needing to go backafterward and delete the registrations with the old key?
