Appendix B. Importing Kickstart Repositories
Kickstart repositories are not provided by the Content ISO image. To use Kickstart repositories in your disconnected Satellite, you must download a binary DVD ISO file for the version of Red Hat Enterprise Linux that you want to use and copy the Kickstart files to Satellite.
To import Kickstart repositories for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 9, complete Section B.1, “Importing Kickstart Repositories for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 9”.
To import Kickstart repositories for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 8, complete Section B.2, “Importing Kickstart Repositories for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 8”.
To import Kickstart repositories for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7, complete Section B.3, “Importing Kickstart Repositories for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7”.
B.1. Importing Kickstart Repositories for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 9
Use this procedure to import Kickstart repositories for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 9.
Procedure
- Navigate to the Red Hat Customer Portal at access.redhat.com/downloads and log in.
- Click Red Hat Enterprise Linux.
- Select a product variant and a product version from the list. For example, product variant Red Hat Enterprise Linux for x86_64 and product version 9.0.
- Locate the full installation image, for example, Red Hat Enterprise Linux 9.0 Binary DVD, and click Download Now. Note that you cannot provision hosts using the minimal ISO.
- When the download completes, copy the ISO image to Satellite Server.
On Satellite Server, create a mount point and temporarily mount the ISO image at that location:
# mkdir /mnt/iso # mount -o loop rhel-binary-dvd.iso /mnt/iso
Replace rhel-binary-dvd.iso with the name of your ISO image.
Create directories for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 9 AppStream and BaseOS Kickstart repositories:
# mkdir --parents /var/www/html/pub/satellite-import/content/dist/rhel9/9.0/x86_64/appstream/kickstart # mkdir --parents /var/www/html/pub/satellite-import/content/dist/rhel9/9.0/x86_64/baseos/kickstart
Copy the
kickstart
files from the ISO image:# cp -a /mnt/iso/AppStream/* /var/www/html/pub/satellite-import/content/dist/rhel9/9.0/x86_64/appstream/kickstart # cp -a /mnt/iso/BaseOS/* /mnt/iso/images/ /var/www/html/pub/satellite-import/content/dist/rhel9/9.0/x86_64/baseos/kickstart
Note that for BaseOS, you must also copy the contents of the
/mnt/iso/images/
directory.Add the following entries to the listing files:
To the
/var/www/html/pub/satellite-import/content/dist/rhel9/9.0/x86_64/appstream/listing
file, appendkickstart
with a new line.To the
/var/www/html/pub/satellite-import/content/dist/rhel9/9.0/x86_64/baseos/listing
file, appendkickstart
with a new line.To the
/var/www/html/pub/satellite-import/content/dist/rhel8/listing
file, append the version number with a new line. For example, for the Red Hat Enterprise Linux 9.0 binary ISO, append9.0
.Copy the
.treeinfo
files from the ISO image:# cp /mnt/iso/.treeinfo /var/www/html/pub/satellite-import/content/dist/rhel9/9.0/x86_64/appstream/kickstart/treeinfo # cp /mnt/iso/.treeinfo /var/www/html/pub/satellite-import/content/dist/rhel9/9.0/x86_64/baseos/kickstart/treeinfo

B.3. Importing Kickstart Repositories for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7
Use this procedure to import Kickstart repositories for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7.
Procedure
- Navigate to the Red Hat Customer Portal at access.redhat.com/downloads and log in.
- Click Red Hat Enterprise Linux.
- Click Switch to version 7 and below above the Product Variant list.
- Select a product variant and a product version from the list. For example, product variant Red Hat Enterprise Linux for x86_64 and product version 7.9.
- Locate the full installation image, for example, Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7.9 Binary DVD, and click Download Now.
- When the download completes, copy the ISO image to Satellite Server.
On Satellite Server, create a mount point and temporarily mount the ISO image at that location:
# mkdir /mnt/iso # mount -o loop rhel-binary-dvd.iso /mnt/iso
Replace rhel-binary-dvd.iso with the name of your ISO image.
Create Kickstart directories:
# mkdir --parents /var/www/html/pub/satellite-import/content/dist/rhel/server/7/7.9/x86_64/kickstart/
Copy the
kickstart
files from the ISO image:# cp -a /mnt/iso/* /var/www/html/pub/satellite-import/content/dist/rhel/server/7/7.9/x86_64/kickstart/
Add the following entries to the listing files:
To the
/var/www/html/pub/satellite-import/content/dist/rhel/server/7/listing
file, append the version number with a new line. For example, for the Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7.9 ISO, append7.9
.To the
/var/www/html/pub/satellite-import/content/dist/rhel/server/7/7.9/listing
file, append the architecture with a new line. For example,x86_64
.To the
/var/www/html/pub/satellite-import/content/dist/rhel/server/7/7.9/x86_64/listing
file, appendkickstart
with a new line.Copy the
.treeinfo
files from the ISO image:# cp /mnt/iso/.treeinfo /var/www/html/pub/satellite-import/content/dist/rhel/server/7/7.9/x86_64/kickstart/treeinfo
If you do not plan to use the mounted binary DVD ISO image, unmount and remove the directory:
# umount /mnt/iso # rmdir /mnt/iso
- In the Satellite web UI, enable the Kickstart repositories.
