Thanks, that sounds way easier than I thought it would be.

No, there isn’t, but all is not lost: just delete the ol7_x86_64_uekr3 channel 
and recreate it as a child of oraclelinux7-x86_64. Spacewalk retains all the 
packages it has already synced, so the next time that channel syncs, it’ll just 
relink all the packages that are already on your Spacewalk server.

Cheers,
Avi
