Hello Frank,

Your export do not contain information about channels. Rerun
rhn-satellite-exporter with channel options, e.g.

  rhn-satellite-exporter -a --all-orgs -d /data/spacewalk -c channel1 -c channel2 ...

and then import into other server with

  satellite-sync -m /data/spacewalk -c channel1 -c channel2 ...
