Hi Jeff,
I suggest you use the plain "7" directory, instead of the specific
release directories
such as "7.2.1511". The "7" directory usually points to the latest, most
appropriate files.
In CentOS there is not really a way to stay on a sub-release such as
7.2, so referring to
those directories will not make a difference in the long run.
I haven't administered Spacewalk servers for a while now but that's how
I used to do it.
Kind regards,
Steve
