Point 3 of satellite-upgrade-postgresql.txt (currently mentioned in the bug report summary) contains instructions to convert Satellite filer (/var/satellite). Point 4 of the same document contains instructions to rebuild search indexes. Nowhere in this document have I found a single occurence of the "rhn-upgrade" string. Which document are we really talking about here? Package = rhn-upgrade.noarch 0:5.6.0.38-1.el6sat File = /etc/sysconfig/rhn/satellite-upgrade/doc/satellite-and-os-upgrade-postgresql.txt ... ... 100 You will see a message advising you to create the satellite administrator 101 account. Ignore this message. 102 103 At the end of Red Hat Satellite installation, stop your Satellite by: 104 105 /usr/sbin/rhn-satellite stop 106 107 and if you installed embedded PostgreSQL variant, start the database with: 108 109 service postgresql start 110 111 Install the rhn-upgrade package on new server, either: 112 113 yum install rhn-upgrade 114 115 or by downloading the rpm manually and running: 116 117 rpm -ivh rhn-upgrade-*.rpm 118 119 120 4. Import database schema. ... ... All right, thank you. True, you cannot yum install rhn-upgrade on a 5.6 Satellite. The package is not available in 5.6 channels + disconnected Satellites do not have that option. The instructions here should be clearer, we could perhaps instruct our customers to download & install the rhn-upgrade package manually. VERIFIED. rhn-upgrade-5.6.0.41-1.el6sat.noarch
REPRO:
# less /etc/sysconfig/rhn/satellite-upgrade/doc/satellite-and-os-upgrade-{oracle,postgresql}.txt
...
Install the rhn-upgrade package on new server, either:
yum install rhn-upgrade
or by downloading the rpm manually and running:
rpm -ivh rhn-upgrade-*.rpm
4. {Import database schema.|Restore and upgrade database schema.}
...
FIX:
# less /etc/sysconfig/rhn/satellite-upgrade/doc/satellite-and-os-upgrade-{oracle,postgresql}.txt
...
Install the rhn-upgrade package on new server. Download the latest version
of rhn-upgrade from Red Hat Customer Portal and install the package by running:
rpm -ivh rhn-upgrade-*.rpm
4. {Import database schema.|Restore and upgrade database schema.}
