I would look at applying the errata not the package if I were you that may be easier.

> Hi All,
> We want to apply specific patches to all the systems registered in spacewalk, as of now spacewalk is showing me all the updates which are available from centos mirrors, but i want only kernel-, and other critical packages only. Is there any way to create a global package profile and apply only those packages on all the servers/ or set of servers? Because going to each server and selecting manually is a bit time consuming process, Kindly help!

Hello neeraj,

You can create custom channel and "clone" only specific packages from CentOS
to it. Then re-register your clients from origianl CentOS channel to the
custom and let them update from this channel.
