I would use channel cloning for this, so that you don't forget to unlink the 
repo from production and mistakenly upgrade systems. :) So, you sync to testing 
and when you're happy, you clone the channel content to production. Using 
spacewalk-clone-by-date, you can repeatedly clone to the same target set, which 
have no upstream repo configured.

Here's a white paper I co-wrote that gives a high level example of this: 
https://community.oracle.com/docs/DOC-921379

And yes, this is a hijack, so we should probably continue to discuss this in a 
different thread. :)

Cheers,
Avi
