Hi,
you can try to execute the following

spacewalk-repo-sync -l  just to check the channel label to delete

Then

spacewalk-remove-channel  -c CHANNEL-LABEL  if you want to delete a child channel
Or
spacewalk-remove-channel -a channel-label  if you want to delete a base channel with all its child

So,

spacewalk-data-fsck -r -S -C -O  to clean up the filesystem from the orphan packages

Yes, I’m able to log back in the server. (Note to self, don’t mirror debuginfo repos). Thanks again.

    And that freed up disk space?  If so, hurray!

    Thanks! I found them in /var/satellite and did

    # find /var/satellite –name “*debuginfo*” –type d | xargs rm –rf

        You must know which directory the packages are stored in.  For me, it's /spacewalk/satellite/redhat.  That's just the way I set it up.  YMMV.  Do a search for a couple of packages that you're sure are in one of your repos.

        Which spacewalk dir? I did a “find / -name spacewalk –type d” and none of the resulting directories contained a large amount of data.

            Chris,

            I don't know if this will be of any help to you, and someone will probably come up with a better solution, but here's what I once did.  I needed to remove Rpmforge repos, as Rpmforge ceased existence.  I deleted the repos, and ran fsck, but the Rpmforge-related packages remained.  Fortunately, "rf" was in the package names from Rpmforge, so I ran the following one-liner in the spacewalk directory:  "find . -type f -name '*.rf.*' -exec rm {} +".  That took care of the problem.  If the packages that you want to remove also have some identifier like "rf", perhaps this will work for you.

            Dimitri

            I did the spacewalk-remove-channel but it did NOT delete packages. I’m now trying to do spacewalk-data-fsck but I get this…

            [root at td-spacewalk bin]# spacewalk-data-fsck -r Spacewalk 23672 2017/04/13 10:33:37 -04:00: ERROR LOG FILE: Couldn't open log file /var/log/rhn/spacewalk-data-fsck.log

                Hi Christopher,

                There are spacewalk-remove-channel and spacewalk-data-fsck commands which
                can help you.
