第3章 Transitioning from Satellite 5 to 6
This chapter describes how to perform migrating of clients from the old Satellite 5 to Satellite 6 using the bootstrap script, and how to retire the old Satellite instance after the transition process is finished.
The bootstrap script used for transition handles content registration, Product certificates, and Puppet configuration. The bootstrap script has the advantage of subscribing a Red Hat Enterprise Linux system to a Satellite 6, regardless of where it is registered (RHN, Satellite 5, SAM, RHSM), or if it is registered at all.
The bootstrap script enables you to:
- Migrate a client from Satellite 5 to Satellite 6.
- Migrate a client from one Satellite 6 instance to another.
- Register a new Red Hat Enterprise Linux system to Satellite 6.

- If you have Satellite 5.8 running on a s390 system, you must build a fresh Satellite 6 on an x86_64 architecture system. Satellite 6 cannot run on s390 systems.
- Ensure you start with a fully-functional, up-to-date Satellite 6.
- The Satellite 6 instance must be synchronized with the required Red Hat content before you start the transition process.
- You have configured activation keys for the hosts. For more information on configuring activation keys, see Managing Activation Keys in the Content Management Guide.
- Optionally, configure host collections to match your environment. For more information on creating a host collection, see Configuring Host Collections in Managing Hosts.
