How can I sync custom channels when using Inter-Satellite sync
Issue
- Trying to sync custom channels using inter-satellite sync
- The custom channels appear in the satellite-sync -l output (test-base-channel in this case):
[root@slave ~]# satellite-sync -l

16:12:25 p = previously imported/synced channel
16:12:25 . = channel not yet imported/synced
16:12:25 e = channel no longer supported (end-of-service)
16:12:25 base-channels:
16:12:25 . rhel-i386-server-6 6818
16:12:25 p rhel-x86_64-server-5 14845
16:12:25 p rhel-x86_64-server-6 8902
16:12:25 . test-base-channel 2
...
- However it isn't being sync'ed when using the --include-custom-channels switch:
[root@slave ~]# satellite-sync --include-custom-channels
