All,
Is it possible to redirect requests for packages sent to the Spacewalk
server to another source or repository? Currently our repositories are
served from built-in FTP servers on our Netscreens and are mirrored
globally using the the filer's built-in snapshot and mirror
capabilities. We'd like to leverage Spacewalk for centralized system
package status but continue to use our Netscreens for data storage
without having to install more hardware for proxies or Spacewalk servers
in all of our (many) datacenters. Is it possible to have one or two
centrally located Spacewalk servers, but still have the packages served
up come directly from the Netscreen filers?

Yes, it is possible.
Just make sure that the client have classic yum repo file available on disk (there is many way how you can create it there). When the machines are registered to Spacewalk, Spacewalk will know about all installed packages (just name and version-release). However you could not manage those package (upgrade to newest version, install particular package etc.) and Spacewalk will just display current status.
