Hi! I have a little bit "complex" layout. Based on the problem that I have to keep all my Servers on same Patchlevel throughout the month.
As example for the CentOS 6-part Base-Channel CentOS6 --- childchannel CentOS 6.9 --- childchannel CentOS 6.9 Updates Clone Of Base-Channel CentOS6 --- clone of childchannel CentOS 6 --- clone of childchannel CentOS 6 Updates - Months 01-04-07-10 --- clone of childchannel CentOS 6 Updates - Months 02-05-08-11 --- clone of childchannel CentOS 6 Updates - Months 03-06-09-12 There is no Server connected to Base-Channel and below, this is wehre I do my Reposync on daily base in it All my Servers are subscribed to the Clone of Base-Channel, CentOS 6 the "clone of Childchannel CentOS6" and the papropiate Updates-Channel I do a clone by date + Channelsync every start of the Month and switch my Servers from e.g subchannel 02-05-08-11 to 03-06-09-12 and so on.... With this one I have the benefit to keep the Servers on the same Level for the full month, end even could keep them at least 3 Months "old" :-) cheers Matthias ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ METZLER Informationstechnologie Matthias Gruber IT-Infrastruktur & -Betrieb B.

If, for example, you are running CentOS 6.7 without spacewalk, and you run “yum update”, you will end up at CentOS 6.9. If I add spacewalk, what is the best way to do that? Do I make a centos67-base with a centos67-updates child, then a centos69-base with a centos69-update child, using the respective repositories (which I think are a vault.centos.org and http://mirror.centos.org/centos-6/6.9/os/x86_64/)? But then do I have to change which channel my server is subscribed to from the centos67 to centos69? Or should I make a centos6 channel with the child centos6-updates channel using the repositories for latest minor version ( http://mirror.centos.org/centos-6/6/os/x86_64/ )? Is this advisable? Is there documentation for best practices for setting up/organizing channels? Thanks for your advice!
