12.2 Configuring a Spacewalk Server to Act as a Ksplice Mirror

To configure a Spacewalk server to act as a Ksplice mirror, configure repositories and associated software channels for the Oracle Linux releases and architectures of the clients on which you want to run Ksplice Offline Client. Each Ksplice channel should be a child of the appropriate base software channel. See Section 2.4, “Working with Repositories” and Section 2.5, “Working with Software Channels”.

The following table shows the channels that are available for Ksplice on Oracle Linux.
