4.10.2. Configuring Hosts to Use an Alternate Satellite CNAME for Content Management

If Satellite is configured with an alternate CNAME, you can configure hosts to use the alternate Satellite CNAME for content management. To do this, you must point hosts to the alternate Satellite CNAME prior to registering the hosts to Satellite. You can do this using the bootstrap script or manually.

# ./bootstrap.py --server alternate_fqdn.example.com

[server]
# Server hostname:
hostname = alternate_fqdn.example.com

content omitted

[rhsm]
# Content base URL:
baseurl=https://alternate_fqdn.example.com/pulp/repos

Now you can register the host with the subscription-manager.
