Chapter 3. Provisioning the command-line assistant to RHEL deployments with Red Hat Satellite


You can install the command-line assistant powered by RHEL Lightspeed to your host registered to Red Hat Satellite. For that, update the config -- command-line assistant endpoint, so that the RHEL system registered to Satellite can proxy command-line assistant by using the Satellite Server.

Prerequisites

  • You are using the command-line assistant on a host registered to a Satellite 6.17+ server or later versions.
  • The Satellite Server must be connected to the internet.
  • You have enabled the AppStream repository on the host to be able to install command-line assistant.

Procedure

  1. Install command-line assistant powered by RHEL Lightspeed on your registered host.

    Copy to Clipboard Toggle word wrap
    $ sudo dnf install command-line-assistant
  2. Locate and open the /etc/xdg/command-line-assistant/config.toml file.
  3. In the config.toml file, replace the endpoint configuration option to point to your Satellite or Capsule hostname, for example:

    Copy to Clipboard Toggle word wrap
    #The endpoint points to an API server.
    endpoint = "https://satellite.example.server.com/api/lightspeed/v1"
  4. Save the changes in the config.toml file.
