I'm happy to report that after waiting a few days and letting the monthly cleanup /tuning jobs run on my spacewalk master server, the cloning process is working for all of the channels that were failing.
I suspect that a previous monthly job didn't complete properly due to running out of memory and left something problematic behind somewhere. I managed to clone 3 channel groups this morning without a hiccough much to my relief. Just in time for the beginning of our patch cycle this quarter.

Failures Cloning Channels with spacewalk-manage-channel-lifecycle Here's some additional info about one of the failure modes I'm seeing. I kept cranking up the memory limits until I now have the limits at default =4192 max=16388. Some channels are handled ok by this tool now. Others fail pretty quickly while clearing the first target channel. _______________________________________________ Spacewalk-list mailing list Spacewalk-list@redhat.com https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/spacewalk-list
