Thanks Avi, is that the "sync only latest packages" checkbox on the UI under 
the Sync tab for a Software Channel?

Out of curiosity, how is this done via the cli?

    You'll want to check your channel sync scripts to make sure 
spacewalk-repo-sync is called using the --latest/-n flag (at least for the 
channels that fill up your disk space) so that Spacewalk doesn't redownload all 
the old packages you removed. There is also a UI checkbox for this on the Sync 
tab for a Software Channel.
