Chapter 1. Summary of Changes
You can view security and bug fix advisories for major and minor versions of this release on the Red Hat Customer Portal.
The 6.14 release of Red Hat Satellite features the following changes:
Custom Products enablement and Simple Content Access
- Custom Products are now disabled by default.
- The content access of your hosts and activation keys does not change. This is ensured by adding appropriate enabled or disabled overrides to repositories during the upgrade in organizations both with and without Simple Content Access.
- Due to this approach, you can smoothly transition your organizations to Simple Content Access.
Improved Content View management
- A Content View version displays an indicator icon in the Versions table if the Content View has new changes. The icon is grey if Satellite was not able to determine the state of changes, for example, when audit records have been removed.
- The Content View publishing wizard displays a message if your Content View contains no audited changes and you do not need to publish the Content View.
- A Content View version displays an indicator icon in the Versions table if the Content View has a filter applied.
Improved Lifecycle environment assignment
- You can assign a host to a Lifecycle environment on a particular Capsule only if the Capsule includes that Lifecycle environment for syncing from Satellite.
- If you attempt to assign hosts in bulk to a Lifecycle environment, which is not synced on a particular Capsule, the task will fail with an error message for the hosts that rely on this Capsule.
- If you want to reassign an individual host to another Lifecycle environment, you can only select Lifecycle environments that are synced to that host’s Capsule.
Ansible roles in the Satellite API
- You can add/remove a single Ansible role to/from hosts or host groups without having to define all Ansible roles for each change in Ansible roles assignment.
Recurrent remote execution jobs and sync plans
- You can use extended cron lines to specify, for example, a particular day in a week and month.
Improved report templates
-
Host – Applicable ErrataandHost – Registered Content Hosts– Using a new option, you can select whether the report should list all applicable errata or only the installable errata. -
Host – Applied Errata– The report now contains the Erratum release date.
Global host registration form
- Asterisks have been removed from optional fields in the registration form that were incorrectly marked as mandatory previously.
Apache defaults to system-wide crypto policies
- You can configure cryptographic policies on the system level on Satellite Server and Apache configuration inherits them by default. For more information, see Using system-wide cryptographic policies in Red Hat Enterprise Linux 8 Security hardening.
Improved documentation
- Better explanation of Resolving Package Dependencies in Managing Content.
- Documentation about OpenSCAP configuring and scanning is moved from Administering Red Hat Satellite to a new standalone guide Managing Security Compliance.
Upgrading and Updating guide is now split into two separate guides:
New REX job template for Convert2RHEL pre-conversion analysis
Satellite provides a new job template Convert2RHEL analyze for remote execution. You use this template before an actual conversion to verify that your hosts are ready for conversion to Red Hat Enterprise Linux.
This feature is available in the 6.14.1 release.
The following parameters have been removed in this release:
-
--foreman-proxy-content-puppet: Removed to simplify the Puppet integration in Satellite. -
--puppet-auth-template: Removed along with Puppet 6 support. -
--puppet-server-use-legacy-auth-conf: Removed along with Puppet 6 support.
The following parameters have been added in this release:
-
--foreman-proxy-content-pulpcore-hide-guarded-distributions: To hide distributions that are protected by a content guard from the default listing. -
--foreman-proxy-plugin-openscap-ansible-module: To ensure the Ansible module for the OpenSCAP plugin. -
--foreman-proxy-plugin-openscap-ansible-module-ensure: To ensure the Ansible module for the OpenSCAP plugin.
The following parameters have been replaced in this release:
-
--puppet-puppetmasterhas been replaced with--puppet-agent-server-hostname: To set the hostname of your Puppet server. -
--puppet-porthas been replaced with--puppet-agent-server-port: To override the port of the server you connect to.
Chapter 2. New Features
This part describes new features and major enhancements introduced in Red Hat Satellite 6.14.
Hosts that are removed from the Satellite WebUI can also be removed from the Insights Inventory
Hosts registered against Satellite or Capsule can be removed from the Insights Inventory when they are removed from Satellite. When you enable the Automatic Mismatch Deletion setting in Satellite, the hosts are automatically removed from the Insights Inventory during the next synchronization with Satellite (by default in a day). An admin user can toggle Satellite to be the source of host inventory so it can control the existence of hosts in Insights according to their status.
The hosts can be removed from the Insights Inventory in the following ways:
- Insights Inventory UI
- Automatic Mismatch Deletion from Red Hat Inventory settings
- Unregistering the hosts by running subscription-manager --unregister in the command line
- Direct API call to the Red Hat Hybrid Cloud API
Jira:SAT-18004
Hosts will now be assigned Content Views and lifecycle environments as a single unit
As a result of an upcoming Satellite feature, hosts will now be assigned Content Views and lifecycle environments as a single unit instead of separately. Hostgroups will be required to assign both a Content View and a lifecycle environment to a host simultaneously. This ensures that a host cannot have a lifecycle environment without an associated Content View.
Jira:SAT-19305
Search inputs are now standardized
Pages with search inputs are now standardized. As part of this, the settings Autosearch and Autosearch delay are no longer provided.
Jira:SAT-16832
Applicable and installable errata can be selected in report templates
A new feature has been added for applicable and installable errata in report templates. Select Applicable to show all applicable errata. Select Installable to limit the report exclusively to errata that are accessible in the host’s content view environment(s) that can be installed.
Jira:SAT-16885
New filter drop-down list showing only 'Red Hat' or 'Custom' repositories
A new enhancement has been added for Simple Content Access (SCA) users to enable all custom repositories on content hosts using the Satellite UI. As a SCA user, you can choose any number of repositories or all repositories and select Override to Enabled to enable the custom repositories on content hosts.
Jira:SAT-18718
Test-firing webhooks
You can now test if a webhook functions correctly by selecting Test webhook from the list in the Actions column. After you enter a payload and click Submit, the webhook triggers.
Jira:SAT-18843
Extended cron lines for recurring remote execution jobs and sync plans
You can now use extended cron lines when scheduling a recurring remote execution job or sync plan. For example, you can set up a cron job to run at 5 AM on first Monday of each month using the syntax 0 5 * * 1#1. To learn more about the extended cron lines, see Using Extended Cron Lines in Managing Hosts.
Jira:SAT-16635
You are now notified if a task has been in running or paused state for two days
Satellite now periodically checks for tasks that have been in running or paused state for more than two days and sends email reports and notifications about these tasks to subscribed users. To enable this feature, go to the Email Preferences tab in your account settings and set Long running tasks to enabled. This feature is enabled for admin users by default. By default, this task runs every day at midnight. You can reschedule the task by running the following command:
foreman-rake foreman_tasks:reschedule_long_running_tasks_checker FOREMAN_TASKS_CHECK_LONG_RUNNING_TASKS_CRONLINE='$cron'
Replace $cron with a cronline describing the new schedule.
Jira:SAT-17519
New API endpoints have been introduced
The following API endpoints have been added:
- api/v2/hosts/:id/ansible_roles/:ansible_role_id
- Send a GET request to add a single Ansible role to a host or send a DELETE request to remove a single Ansible role from a host.
- api/v2/hostgroups/:id/ansible_roles/:ansible_role_id
- Send a GET request to add a single Ansible role to a host group or send a DELETE request to remove a single Ansible role from a host group.
- api/v2/organizations/:organization_id/rh_cloud/missing_hosts
- Send a GET request to list hosts that are missing in Red Hat Cloud.
- api/v2/webhooks/:id/test
- Send a POST request to test-fire a webhook.
You can now filter hosts by PXE loader
You can now use the pxe_loader search keyword to filter hosts by their PXE loader. To search for hosts without the PXE loader set, use null? pxe_loader syntax.
Jira:SAT-17166
Option to ignore treeinfo available
A new Ignore treeinfo checkbox has been added for the user to skip syncing treeinfo files if they receive the error Treeinfo file should have INI format. All files related to Kickstart will be missing from the repository if treeinfo files are skipped.
Jira:SAT-17764
Content View Filters provide a message indication
A filter icon appears next to a version of Content View if that specific version is published with filters applied.
Filter icons are only available with this release. Content View versions published by older versions of Satellite will not have the filter icon on Content Views published with filters.
Jira:SAT-16960
User is notified if there are no new updates when publishing a Content View
When the user uses the publish wizard to publish a Content View, the user will be notified if no new updates are available. The notification says No available repository or filter updates. Users will see an indication if a Content View needs to be published.
Jira:SAT-16959
Custom products are now disabled by default in Satellite
During the upgrade to Satellite 6.14, content overrides will be automatically added so that existing hosts and activation keys have access to the same repositories before and after the upgrade. Going forward, newly created custom products will be disabled by default.
Jira:SAT-16809
Reduced the required set of inputs while enabling Puppet
Previously, it was mandatory to specify the Puppet client certificate locations in the Satellite installer command while installing the Puppet server on the Satellite Server and Capsules. These locations had fixed values and specifying non-standard locations would lead to incorrect configuration resulting in a broken setup.
With this release, the certificate locations are no longer required, simplifying correct configuration and operation.
Jira:SAT-16079
Apache now supports the system-configured crypto policies and ciphers::
Apache (or httpd) now supports system-configured crypto policies for TLS protocols and ciphers. This set of policies is applied consistently to running services and is kept up-to-date.
For more information on using crypto policies on RHEL, see the Using system-wide cryptographic policies on the RHEL 8 guide.
Jira:SAT-17893
You can now see which capsule is chosen for remote execution
You can use the foreman-rake foreman_remote_execution:explain_proxy_selection HOST=$host PROVIDER=$provider command to see which capsule would be used to run a remote execution job on the given host at that moment and why. When using the command, replace the following variables:
-
Replace
$hostwith the name of the host or with a search query. -
Replace
$providerwith a provider.
To learn more about optional arguments of this command, run foreman-rake -D foreman_remote_execution:explain_proxy_selection. An example use:
foreman-rake foreman_remote_execution:explain_proxy_selection HOST=’name ~ *’ PROVIDER=ssh FORMAT=csv
Jira:SAT-16817
Display the reason for failed Ansible jobs in config reports
Previously, when an Ansible job failed, accessing the config report of the host resulted in a 500 server error. With this release, you can view the config report and examine the detailed log message of the failure.
Jira:SAT-13901
Client certificate required to access Red Hat repositories from browser
Users will need the client or debug certificate to access and download the RPMs from Red Hat repositories stored under /pulp/content/.
Jira:SAT-16759
Satellite EOL date in the web UI
Admin users can now see the end of life (EOL) date in the Satellite web UI if the EOL date of the Satellite version is within the next 6 months. This information displays as a warning banner. The warning banner changes to an error banner if the Satellite version is past the EOL date. You can dismiss the banners and they reappear after one month or on the EOL date.
Jira:SAT-21478
Chapter 3. Bug Fixes
This part describes bugs fixed in Red Hat Satellite 6.14 that have a significant impact on users.
Logging error during the host registration with Red Hat Insights
Previously, provisioning a host registered with Red Hat Insights by running the command insights-client —register –verbose logged a huge stack trace log after package installation.
With this release, the log is quiet and easy to analyze.
Jira:SAT-13098
Host group information inheritance when provisioning a discovered host
Previously, when you provisioned a discovered host, the content view and lifecycle environment information was missing after selecting a host group and trying to customize the host entry. This resulted in a failed deployment attempt. With this release, information from the host group is correctly inherited when you provision a discovered host.
Infoblox plugin no longer suggests IP addresses already in use
Previously, when you used the Infoblox plugin as the DHCP provider, it suggested free IP addresses that were already in use. With this fix, you can configure the plugin to check the availability of IP addresses. The availability checks are enabled by default.
Optional fields in the Host Registration form no longer marked as mandatory
Previously, in the Satellite web UI, the following fields in Hosts > Register Host were marked with an asterisk as required: Organization, Location, Setup REX, Setup Insights, Install packages, Token life time, and REX pull mode. This fix removes the asterisk mark, because those fields are optional, and moves the mandatory Activation Keys field from the Advanced tab to the General tab.
katello/api/repositories/:repository_id/sync now correctly obtains repository synchronization status
The /katello/api/repositories/:repository_id/sync endpoint now functions correctly. You can send a GET request to get the synchronization status of the given repository.
Jira:SAT-17818
Local files are enabled in the SCAP client for newer systems
Previously, on hosts running later minor releases of RHEL 8 and RHEL 9, the SCAP client ignored local SCAP resources. With this release, the SCAP client is configured also for the above-mentioned systems to look for local SCAP resources in the home directory of root (/root).
Generating full host boot image with installation media over HTTPS no longer fails
Previously, when you created a host with installation media provided over HTTPS and attempted to generate the full host boot image, the image download failed. With this release, the image download functions correctly.
Export of host data now contains the selected columns
Previously, the export from the All Hosts page contained a predefined selection of columns, which did not reflect the columns selected on the page. With this release, the export contains the set of columns that you have selected in the Satellite web UI. Note that some columns can be split into multiple columns in the csv export.
Jira:SAT-16915
Alternate Content Sources that use HTTP proxies cannot have the HTTP proxy removed
Previously, if the Use HTTP Proxy flag was unset on the Alternate Content Source, traffic continued to go through the HTTP proxy. With this release, you can set and unset the use HTTP Proxy flag on the Alternate Content Source and it functions correctly.
Chapter 4. Technology Previews
This part provides a list of all Technology Previews available in Red Hat Satellite 6.14.
For information on Red Hat scope of support for Technology Preview features, see Technology Preview Features Support Scope.
Redis cache
Satellite now includes the ability to configure redis as the cache for the Satellite WebUI. Use redis cache if you have a large number of hosts registered to the Satellite Server or if you use the extra-large tuning profile and that is causing issues. To use redis cache:
# satellite-installer --foreman-rails-cache-store type:redis
To revert back to file based caching:
# satellite-installer --foreman-rails-cache-store type:file
Jira:SAT-18354
OpenShift Virtualization plugin
You can provision virtual machines using the OpenShift Virtualization compute resource as a Technology Preview.
Jira:SAT-18663
OVAL / CVE Reporting Support
Satellite now includes the ability to scan systems for vulnerabilities using the OVAL standard data feed provided by Red Hat.
foreman_openscap contains the API to upload the OVAL content used to trigger the OVAL oscap scans. The results are parsed for CVEs and sent to Satellite which then generates reports of managed hosts and the CVEs that effect them.
Jira:SAT-21011
Kernel execution (kexec) template
Kernel execution template for PXE-less boot methods.
Jira:SAT-21012
Chapter 5. Deprecated Functionality

Jira:SAT-23881
Chapter 8. Key References
8.1. What is Red Hat Satellite
Red Hat Satellite is a system management solution that enables you to deploy, configure, and maintain your systems across physical, virtual, and cloud environments. Satellite provides provisioning, remote management and monitoring of multiple Red Hat Enterprise Linux deployments with a single, centralized tool.
Red Hat Satellite Server synchronizes content from the Red Hat Customer Portal and other sources, and provides functionality including fine-grained life cycle management, user and group role-based access control, integrated subscription management, as well as advanced GUI, CLI, or API access.
Red Hat Satellite Capsule Server mirrors content from Red Hat Satellite Server to share the content across various geographical locations. Host systems can pull content and configuration from the Capsule Server in their location instead of from the central Satellite Server. The Capsule Server also provides localized services such as Puppet server, DHCP, DNS, or TFTP. Capsule Servers assist you in scaling Red Hat Satellite as the number of managed systems increases in your environment.
8.2. Supported Architectures
For an overview of supported architectures in Satellite, see Supported Client Architectures.
8.3. Content Delivery Network Repositories and Tools
