   Note

   Older non-promoted content view versions are not distributed once the setting is enabled. Only new content view versions become distributed.

Connected Satellite Server

1. In the Satellite web UI, navigate to Content > Products.
2. Click on the custom product.
3. Click on the custom repository.
4. Copy the Published At: URL.
5. Continue with the procedure on disconnected Satellite Server.

Disconnected Satellite Server

1. Download the katello-server-ca.crt file from the connected Satellite Server:

   # curl http://satellite.example.com/pub/katello-server-ca.crt

2. Create an SSL Content Credential with the contents of katello-server-ca.crt. For more information on creating an SSL Content Credential, see Section 4.3, “Importing custom SSL certificates”.
3. In the Satellite web UI, navigate to Content > Products.

4. Create your custom product with the following:

   • Upstream URL: Paste the link that you copied earlier.
   • SSL CA Cert: Select the SSL certificate that was transferred from your connected Satellite Server.

   For more information on creating a custom product, see Section 4.4, “Creating a custom product”.

Procedure

   Note

   The size of the exported archive depends on the number and size of the packages within the repository. If you want to split the exported archive into chunks, export your repository using the --chunk-size-gb argument to limit the size by an integer value in gigabytes, for example ---chunk-size-gb=2.

2. Optional: Verify that the exported archive is located in the export directory:

   # ls -lh /var/lib/pulp/exports/My_Organization/Export-My_Repository/1.0/2022-09-02T03-35-24-00-00/

   Note you must enter the full path /var/lib/pulp/imports/My_Exported_Library_Dir. Relative paths do not work.

6. To verify that you imported the Library content, check the contents of the product and repositories. A new content view called Import-Library is created in the target organization. This content view is used to facilitate the Library content import.

   By default, this content view is not shown in the Satellite web UI. Import-Library is not meant to be assigned directly to hosts. Instead, assign your hosts to Default Organization View or another content view as you would normally.

7. The importing Satellite Server extracts the /var/lib/pulp/imports directory to /var/lib/pulp/. You can empty the /var/lib/pulp/imports directory after a successful import.

9. Optional: In the System Purpose section, you can configure the activation key to set system purpose attributes on hosts during registration. This helps determine which repositories are available on the host. It also helps with reporting in the Subscriptions service of the Red Hat Hybrid Cloud Console.

CLI procedure

1. Create the activation key:

   # hammer activation-key create \
   --name "My_Activation_Key" \
   --unlimited-hosts \
   --description "Example Stack in the Development Environment" \
   --lifecycle-environment "Development" \
   --content-view "Stack" \
   --organization "My_Organization"

2. Optional: Enter the following command to configure the activation key with system purpose attributes to set on hosts during registration. This helps determine which repositories are available on the host. It also helps with reporting in the Subscriptions service of the Red Hat Hybrid Cloud Console.

   # hammer activation-key update \
   --organization "My_Organization" \
   --name "My_Activation_Key" \
   --service-level "Standard" \
   --purpose-usage "Development/Test" \
   --purpose-role "Red Hat Enterprise Linux Server" \
   --purpose-addons "addons"

3. List the product content associated with the activation key:

   # hammer activation-key product-content \
   --content-access-mode-all true \
   --name "My_Activation_Key" \
   --organization "My_Organization"

4. Override the default auto-enable status for the Red Hat Satellite Client 6 repository. The default status is set to disabled. To enable, enter the following command:

   # hammer activation-key content-override \
   --name "My_Activation_Key" \
   --content-label rhel-7-server-satellite-client-6-rpms \
   --value 1 \
   --organization "My_Organization"

Procedure

1. In the Satellite web UI, navigate to Hosts > Register Host.
2. From the Activation Keys list, select the activation keys to assign to your host.
3. Click Generate to create the registration command.
4. Click on the files icon to copy the command to your clipboard.
5. Connect to your host using SSH and run the registration command.
6. Check the /etc/yum.repos.d/redhat.repo file and ensure that the appropriate repositories have been enabled.

CLI procedure

1. Generate the host registration command using the Hammer CLI:

   # hammer host-registration generate-command \
   --activation-keys "My_Activation_Key"

   If your hosts do not trust the SSL certificate of Satellite Server, you can disable SSL validation by adding the --insecure flag to the registration command.

   # hammer host-registration generate-command \
   --activation-keys "My_Activation_Key" \
   --insecure true

2. Connect to your host using SSH and run the registration command.
3. Check the /etc/yum.repos.d/redhat.repo file and ensure that the appropriate repositories have been enabled.

API procedure

1. Generate the host registration command using the Satellite API:

   # curl -X POST https://satellite.example.com/api/registration_commands \
   --user "My_User_Name" \
   -H 'Content-Type: application/json' \
   -d '{ "registration_command": { "activation_keys": ["My_Activation_Key_1, My_Activation_Key_2"] }}'

   If your hosts do not trust the SSL certificate of Satellite Server, you can disable SSL validation by adding the --insecure flag to the registration command.

   # curl -X POST https://satellite.example.com/api/registration_commands \
   --user "My_User_Name" \
   -H 'Content-Type: application/json' \
   -d '{ "registration_command": { "activation_keys": ["My_Activation_Key_1, My_Activation_Key_2"], "insecure": true }}'

   Use an activation key to simplify specifying the environments. For more information, see Managing Activation Keys in Managing content.

   To enter a password as a command line argument, use username:password syntax. Keep in mind this can save the password in the shell history. Alternatively, you can use a temporary personal access token instead of a password. To generate a token in the Satellite web UI, navigate to My Account > Personal Access Tokens.

     parameter operator value

     See Section 10.3, “Parameters available for errata search” for the list of parameters available for search. Find the list of applicable operators in Supported Operators for Granular Search in Administering Red Hat Satellite. Automatic suggestion works as you type. You can also combine queries with the use of and and or operators. For example, to display only security advisories related to the kernel package, type:

     type = security and package_name = kernel

     Press Enter to start the search.

3. Click the Errata ID of the erratum you want to inspect:

   • The Details tab contains the description of the updated package as well as documentation of important fixes and enhancements provided by the update.

   --organization "Default Organization"

2. Apply one of the errata to multiple hosts:

   Using Remote Execution

   # hammer job-invocation create \
   --feature katello_errata_install \
   --inputs errata=ERRATUM_ID \
   --search-query "applicable_errata = ERRATUM_ID"

   The following Bash script applies an erratum to each host for which this erratum is available:

   for HOST in hammer --csv --csv-separator "|" host list --search "applicable_errata = ERRATUM_ID" --organization "Default Organization" | tail -n+2 | awk -F "|" '{ print $2 }' ;
   do
     echo "== Applying to $HOST ==" ; hammer host errata apply --host $HOST --errata-ids ERRATUM_ID1,ERRATUM_ID2 ;
   done

   This command identifies all hosts with erratum_IDs as an applicable erratum and then applies the erratum to each host.

3. To see if an erratum is applied successfully, find the corresponding task in the output of the following command:

   # hammer task list

4. View the state of a selected task:

   # hammer task progress --id task_ID
