Subject: Re: [Spacewalk-list] [EXTERNAL] /var/satellite full (1.2TB). What 
happens if I remove some of the contents?

/var/satellite will continue to grow as the repos grow in size, due to packages 
being updated.
I have a separate disk just for satellite that we've bolted on more storage 
yearly.
