How to configure Red Hat Satellite 6.10

In this video I show how to do the initial configuration of Red Hat Satellite 6.10. Setting up your entitlement manifest, the lifecycles, content views, activation keys. Then registering a Red Hat Linux server to the Satellite server and patching the server.
When you are done, you'll have the core setup of Satellite that you can then expand upon to meet the needs of your organization to develop a solid patching platform.

Great video, I just installed satellite server and I don't see any repos under Redhat repositories.. will the redhat repos available only after uploading the manifest file ?

[@therootuser]

Yes. The manifest tells satellite what repos you have access to.

[@wasiqrahu2572]

Great instructions. If you can also show how to export patches into an external media. Also some custom Templates and reports, Thank you.

[@therootuser]

I’ll add it to my list of future videos.

Thanks!! could you do an updated video of how to install and configure satellite 6.11 on RHEL 8 and get it connected to VMWARE via virtwho, etc? Thanks!

[@therootuser]

Installing Satellite 6.11 is going to be the same as in the other videos on RHEL 8, the OS only changes a few things, mainly you just want the RHEL 8 versions of the repos, however the commands would follow the same pattern. As for VMWare, I do not have that in my lab environment at this time, mine is all KVM based with RHEL 9. It could be something I could do later on, but it would require new hardware in which I can run VMWare on first.

Hello, How can we use Pulp as local repo

[@therootuser]

I'm not sure I under what you are going for. Satellite would patch itself from the repositories you sync from Red Hat to the Satellite server. The capsule servers would get their patches from the Satellite server as well, and all hosts would be registered to each capsule server, or if your environment is not large enough to need a capsule server directly from the Satellite server. What exactly are you trying to acomplish?
