Spacewalk (from 2.2 onwards) supports Oracle Linux and you can sync directly with ULN or yum.oracle.com <http://yum.oracle.com/>. You can check our Spacewalk documentation: 

Getting Started Guide: http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E52668_01/E71709/html/index.html <http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E52668_01/E71709/html/index.html>
Client Lifecycle Guide: http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E52668_01/E71078/html/index.html <http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E52668_01/E71078/html/index.html>

Additionally, Oracle Linux 6.8 and 7.2 (and higher) support registering directly with a Spacewalk server without installing the Spacewalk client. The built-in yum-rhn-plugin and RHN libraries support registration with either ULN or a Spacewalk instance.

Further, if you have Oracle Linux support, we provide Spacewalk support at no additional cost, including a limited-use license for Oracle Database 12c Enterprise Edition when used as the Spacewalk repository database. This requires using the Spacewalk packages provided by Oracle on yum.oracle.com <http://yum.oracle.com/> and not the upstream Spacewalk packages provided by the project itself. 

Hope that helps,
Avi
