custom repositories missing from subscription-manager repos --list

Latest response

Hi!

I have a satellite6 server with several RH repos and a few custom repos. In my content view I have enabled both, but when running
subscription-manager repos --list the custom ones does not show up at all. I have tried both via a external capsule and directly from Satellite without sucess. Do I have to perform any further steps to make those repos show up in subscription-manager?

Thanks,

Erling

Erling,

Thank you for starting this discussion. Can you provide a list of the steps you have followed so far?

The repositories available to a host are determined by the host's Content View and Environment. Verify both of these in the Satellite web UI by navigating to Hosts > Content Hosts. If you believe those values are correct, the next step would be to confirm the repositories contained by the Content View. In the Satellite web UI navigate to Content > Content Views and click on the name of the specific Content View. Click Yum Content menu item > Repositories. The result is a list of the Yum repositories available in the specific Content View.

This was a user error :) I assumed that subscription assignment was something only relevant to Red Hat repositories, so I did not realize that Satellite automatically generated subscriptions for the custom channels. The solution was simply to assign subscriptions for the custom channels to all servers and update the activation keys to assign subscriptions to new servers automatically.
