Red Hat Summit1.3. Supported Usage
Each Red Hat Satellite subscription includes one supported instance of Red Hat Enterprise Linux Server. This instance should be reserved solely for the purpose of running Red Hat Satellite. Using the operating system included with Satellite to run other daemons, applications, or services within your environment is not supported.
Support for Red Hat Satellite components is described below.
SELinux must be either in enforcing or permissive mode, installation with disabled SELinux is not supported.
- Puppet
Red Hat Satellite includes supported Puppet packages. The installation program allows users to install and configure Puppet Masters as a part of Red Hat Satellite Capsule Servers. A Puppet module, running on a Puppet Master on the Red Hat Satellite Server or Satellite Capsule Server, is also supported by Red Hat. For information on what versions of Puppet are supported, see the Red Hat Knowledgebase article Satellite 6 Component Versions.
Red Hat supports many different scripting and other frameworks, including Puppet modules. Support for these frameworks is based on the Red Hat Knowledgebase article How does Red Hat support scripting frameworks.
- Pulp
- Pulp usage is only supported via the Satellite Server web UI, CLI, and API. Direct modification or interaction with Pulp’s local API or database is not supported, as this can cause irreparable damage to the Red Hat Satellite databases.
- Foreman
Foreman can be extended using plug-ins, but only plug-ins packaged with Red Hat Satellite are supported. Red Hat does not support plug-ins in the Red Hat Satellite Optional repository.
Red Hat Satellite also includes components, configuration and functionality to provision and configure operating systems other than Red Hat Enterprise Linux. While these features are included and can be employed, Red Hat supports their usage for Red Hat Enterprise Linux.
- Candlepin
- The only supported methods of using Candlepin are through the Red Hat Satellite web UI, CLI, and API. Red Hat does not support direct interaction with Candlepin, its local API or database, as this can cause irreparable damage to the Red Hat Satellite databases.
