Closing this bug as the requirements for Satellite 5.7 have changed. Requirements for external database are now PostgreSQL 9.2, which is in the Installation Guide: https://access.redhat.com/documentation/en-US/Red_Hat_Satellite/5.7/html/Installation_Guide/sect-Scenario_3_Installing_Satellite_with_External_Database.html#sect-External_Database_Requirements |
Description of problem: In section 2.3.3 of the Installation Guide it is stated: " Red Hat supports Red Hat Satellite installations on a External Database using one of the following: PostgreSQL 8.4 or greater " This statement is ambiguous and could potentially end up with the user having an unsupported configuration. Reading that statement directly, the user may assume that Satellite 5.6+ is supported with Postgres 9.2 or 9.3, which may or may not be a QA'd configuration. If Satellite 5.6+ is supported with any of the 9.x versions of Postgres, please update the documentation to state that explicitly. Otherwise, change "Postgres 8.4 or later" to exactly "Postgres 8.4"
