Chapter 2. Configuration
This chapter explains how to configure Satellite 6.
2.1. Updating the Satellite Repositories
Red Hat Satellite’s repositories should be kept up to date with the latest errata available from Red Hat. Run the following command often to ensure that Red Hat Satellite is kept up to date:
# hammer repository synchronize --product "prod_name" --name "repo_name" --organization-id="id"
For the procedures in this guide to work as intended, systems registered to Red Hat Satellite must be updated by means of the Content Views that are defined in this guide.
Your organization should also consider the use of synchronization plans for the purpose of keeping your Satellite repositories up-to-date. Synchronization plans define the automated updating of select repositories at specified intervals. See Creating a Synchronization Plan in the Hammer CLI Guide for information on defining synchronization plans.
