On Red Hat Satellite 6, /var/lib/pulp/content consumes much more space than expected

Solution Verified - Updated -

Issue

  • /var/lib/pulp/content consumes much more space than we would expect
  • We see some RPMs stored multiple times there
  • Some RPMs or ISOs found there are not known to be belonging to a synchronized repository
  • Is there a way to identify what files might be redundant and what might be even deleted?

Environment

  • Red Hat Satellite 6
