Good morning, I need a bit of help wrapping my head around the channel creation process. I currently have spacewalk up and running on a CentOS5 host and i'm at the point of pulling data down from a repo and creating a CentoOS 5 channel. The wiki page has some instructions for Fedora but they are leaving me a little confused. How do I deal with software updates inside of my repo that I want to configure into Spacewalk?
I understand that I can use yum and rsync a repo from the mirror list which creates a base directory. I can also do the same for the updates. What is confusing me is how these come together as one channel for Spacewalk to use. Do I create two channels? or could it be that i need to set up the reposync differently. If someone could help set me straight it would be very much appreciated.
