channel using  spacewalk-manage-channel-lifecycle, it takes a while for spacewalk to \

other activities).    You can run &quot;ls -ltr /var/cache/rhn/repodata | tail&quot; \
to see if the channel you promoted has updated the metadata.   Also, yum-based \
systems typically cache the repodata locally for six hours.   Unless you run \
&quot;yum clean metadata&quot; and &quot;yum check-update&quot; manually,  it could \
be up to six hours before your hosts see the updated repodata from Spacewalk.   This \
