Enabling Connections from Smart Proxy Server to Foreman server issues

Open ekohl opened this issue 2 years ago • 2 comments

In the file https://github.com/theforeman/foreman-documentation/blob/master/guides/common/modules/proc_registering-capsule-to-satellite-server.adoc there are various issues.

The port 5646 is only relevant when using katello-agent, which is off by default. This means it belongs in the section https://docs.theforeman.org/nightly/Installing_Proxy/index-katello.html#enabling-katello-agent_smart-proxy to enable katello-agent, possibly as a prerequisite. On non-Katello the whole chapter is irrelevant.

triage: port for katello-agent has been removed recently with #3254

@ekohl Can you please clarify what are those "various issues"? Alternatively, especially if those issues are no longer present, we could close this ticket.

The port 5646 is only relevant when using katello-agent, which is off by default.

This is no longer the case for nightly.

On non-Katello the whole chapter is irrelevant.

This is also correct on nightly:

$ rg -C 2 "proc_registering-capsule-to-satellite-server.adoc"
guides/common/assembly_preparing-smartproxyservers-for-load-balancing.adoc
5-ifdef::satellite,katello[]
6-// Registering {SmartProxyServer} to {ProjectServer}

-> Closing this issue with "Done". Feel free to open a new issue if you find any errors in the docs.
