4.3.2. Adding Files to a Configuration Channel
To add a file to a config channel, specify the channel label as well as the local file to be uploaded, such as:
rhncfg-manager add --channel=channel-label /path/to/file
In addition to the required channel label and the path to the file, you may use the available options for modifying the file during its addition. For instance, you may alter the path and file name by including the
--dest-file option in the command, like:
rhncfg-manager add --channel=channel-label --dest-file=/new/path/to/file.txt/path/to/file
The output resembles the following:
Pushing to channel example-channel Local file >/path/to/file -> remote file /new/path/to/file.txt
The following table lists the options available for
rhncfg-manager add:

Note
By default, the maximum file size for configuration files is 128KB. If you need to change that value, find or create the following lines in the following files:
In
/usr/share/rhn/config-defaults/rhn_web.conf (in bytes):
maximum_config_file_size = 131072
In
/usr/share/rhn/config-defaults/rhn_server.conf (in bytes):
maximum_config_file_size = 131072
In
/usr/share/rhn/config-defaults/rhn_java.conf (in kilobytes):
java.config_file_edit_size = 128
