I think what he meant was the clients that on VMware. For me, I like to take a snapshot from VMware than take a snapshot from SW. It will works 100% in our env. So, when you have a problem on the applications after the patching, you just roll back the previous version from VMware. That’s my 2 c

I have been able to do this by building a rhel 6 server and creating a local repo mirror. I then created a rhel 7 and installed spacewalk. That way i have the entitlements for rhel 6 and 7 covered. From there, I set up the channels and pointed the rhel 7 to the redhat network, and the rhel 6
