Red Hat Satellite 6.4.3 is generally available. The main drivers for the 6.4.3 release are a Request for Feature Enhancement (RFE) for capsule syncing control as well as general stability fixes.
The capsule syncing control feature enables the user to have control over when capsule syncs occur. Traditionally the capsule sync occurs automatically after a content view is updated, but some customers may want more granular control over when the synchronization occurs. Satellite 6.4.3 introduces a new setting in Administer --> Settings --> Content --> Sync Capsules after Content View promotion.
By default this setting is yes, but if you set it to no then the synchronization can instead be started manually via the UI, API, or hammer CLI. This allows you to manually control when the synchronization occurs.
Twenty three bugs have been addressed in this release - the complete list is at the end of the post.
There is one erratum for the server, one for the tools, and one for the maintenance packages. The install ISOs are available now, but customers registered via Red Hat Subscription Manager can update via foreman-maintain
today as described in the upgrade guide.
Customers who have already upgraded to Satellite 6.4 should follow the instructions in the errata. Customers who are on versions of Satellite prior to 6.4 should refer to the Upgrading and Updating Red Hat Satellite Guide. You may also want to consider using the Satellite Upgrade Helper if moving from Satellite 6.x to Satellite 6.4.
Customers who have received hotfixes should check the list of bugs fixed to confirm their hotfix is contained in the release before upgrading. Please reach out to Red Hat Support if you have applied a hotfix that doesn’t correspond to one of the bugs mentioned below to verify that you can apply the hotfix to Satellite 6.4.3.
