[Spacewalk-list] registering servers to specific repositories

[Bill Howe]

You could use activation keys that map to certain base/child channels.

Then just run a registration script on the system (shameless plug example:
https://gitlab.com/whowe/spacewalk/blob/master/spacewalk-register.sh)

You may also be able to use distribution channel mappings, but I haven't
used those, so can't speak much on that.

Good luck.
