Description of problem: The spacewalk-create-channel tool automatically recognizes a source channel labels based on command-line arguments. This guess fails on RHEL6 addons which does not compound full product name in the channel label. In the tool, there is already a workaround for ClusterStorage product. Product Name -> Equivalent Channel Label ClusterStorage -> cluster-storage Let's introduce similar workaround for RHEL6 Addons: ResilientStorage -> rs ScalableFileSystem -> sfs HighAvailability -> ha LoadBalancer -> lb Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): spacewalk-remote-utils-1.0.2-8.el6sat.noarch How reproducible: deterministic Steps to Reproduce: 1. # spacewalk-create-channel --server=rhns.example.com \ --user=admin --password=subtle --destChannel=channel_20554 \ --version=6 \ --update=u2 \ --arch=i386 \ --release=Server \ --extra=ResilientStorage 2. 3. Actual results: Error: data file '6-u2-server-i386-Resilientstorage' does not exist Expected results: Channel created Additional info: See also bug 719555.
