Suggestions: mgr-create-bootstrap-repo uses the locally synchronized versions of files from the Tools repository, and uses the locally synchronized pool channel for dependency resolution. Both should be fully synced before running the mgr-create-bootstrap-repo script.

What should I do above as it cannot find required packages neither for RHEL 7 nor for RHEL 8 ?

But here package not found error.

Do you have the Uyuni Client Tools Channel for RHEL7 added and syncronized? Sync does not happen automatically. It needs to be triggered and preferably its own schedule should be defined. This will change in the near future where the sync will happen automatically for all custom channels together with the vendor channels. But for now you need to define this manually.

@avshiliaev Yes it was present but the problem was here that newer client tools are having venv-salt-minion instead of older salt-minion whereas the RHEL official Client Tools doesn't provide this. Thus added https://provo-mirror.opensuse.org/repositories/systemsmanagement:/Uyuni:/Stable:/CentOS7-Uyuni-Client-Tools/CentOS_7/ & synced the repo to get those. Then performed bootstrap generation & it solved this. Also, it was required to correct this under /usr/share/susemanager/mgr_bootstrap_data.py

'RHEL7-x86_64' : { 'PDID' : [-7, 1683], 'BETAPDID' : [2065], 'PKGLIST' : RES7 + RES7_X86, 'DEST' : DOCUMENT_ROOT + '/pub/repositories/res/7/bootstrap/' }, 'RHEL7-x86_64-uyuni' : { 'BASECHANNEL' : 'rhel-7-server-rpms', 'PKGLIST' : RES7 + RES7_X86, 'DEST' : DOCUMENT_ROOT + '/pub/repositories/res/7/bootstrap/' },

Should have got fixed in this version!!

The configuration needs to be adapted if the base channel label is different from the default expected one.
