satellite-sync --list-channels --mount-point /var/rhn-sat-import
The next step is to initiate the import of a specific channel. Do this using a channel label
presented in the previous list. The command will look like:
satellite-sync -c rhel-i386-as-3 --mount-point /var/rhn-sat-import
Note
Importing package data can take up to two hours per channel. You may begin
registering systems to channels as soon as they appear in the RHN Satellite
Server's website. No packages are necessary for registration, although updates
cannot be retrieved from the Satellite until the channel is completely populated.
You may repeat this step for each channel or include them all within a single command by
passing each channel label preceded by an additional -c flag, like so:
satellite-sync -c channel-label-1 \
-c channel-label-2 \
--mount-point /var/rhn-sat-import
This conducts the following tasks in this order:
1.
Populating the tables describing common features for channels (channel families). This can
also be accomplished individually by passing the --step=channel-families option to
satellite-sync.
2.
Creating a particular channel in the database and importing the metadata describing the
channel. Individually, use the --step=channels option.
3.
Moving the RPM packages from the temporary repository into their final location. Individually,
use the --step=rpms option.
4.
Parsing the header metadata for each package in the channel, uploading the package data,
and associating it with the channel. Individually, use the --step=packages option.
5.
Identifying Errata associated with the packages and including them in the repository.
