[Spacewalk-list] Spacewalk using existing local repo?

Hi,

We currently have a few repo's setup for CentOS and RHEL servers. I have
been searching for a few days but have not found whether this is possible
or not

consider the following setup

Internet
   |
Yum mirror
   |
Lan

Since I have already pulled down all of the packages to the server "Yum
Mirror", is it possible to install spacewalk on the Yum Mirror and simply
create links to the packages?

EX.

the rpm mirror directory is

/archive/yum_mirror/{noarch, extras}

can spacewalk be pointed at that instead of putting them in
/var/lib/satelite?

Or does it have to go through the entire mirroring process all over again?

Perhaps I don't really understand how Spacewalk operates. If that is the
case, can someone point me to some (perhaps overlooked) documentation?

Thanks
