Please put into /etc/rhn/rhn.conf:
server.satellite.rhn_parent = satellite.rhn.redhat.com
and make sure iss_parent is empty.

iss_parent should be set only if this Satellite is used only as slave. I.e. it communicate with rhn.redhat.com very rarely or never.
You can keep iss_parent set to marimba.53201.com, but then you have to use:
 satellite-sync --server=satellite.rhn.redhat.com
to override it, every time you want to sync from rhn.redhat.com.
