Description Jiří Mikulka 2014-08-04 08:33:23 UTC

Description of problem:
Satellite-sync doesn't synchronize (already synchronized) custom channels when running satellite-sync without any channel specification.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
spacewalk-backend-2.2.43-1.el6.noarch (Satellite 5.7 / Spacewalk 2.2)

How reproducible:
always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. setup master with some custom channels, setup slave with no channels
2. setup ISS master -> slave
3. on ISS slave, satellite-sync all ISS master custom channels
   $ satellite-sync -c <custom_channel_1> -c <custom_channel_2> ...
4. on ISS master, push some packages in custom channel 1
5. on ISS slave run "satellite-sync" with no options/parameters

Actual results:
# satellite-sync 
ERROR: No channels currently imported; try satellite-sync --list-channels; then satellite-sync -c chn0 -c chn1...

Expected results:
new packages in already synchronized custom channels are synchronized

Comment 1 Stephen Herr 2014-09-29 18:28:37 UTC

Not a bug. Custom channels are never synced unless you explicitly specify the channel label with -c / --channels or add the the --include-custom-channels option to the naked satellite-sync command. This is documented in the man page.
