Description Mike McCune 2014-12-01 20:21:17 UTC

If you look at the pre-reqs for the install we only state:

 * Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6.5 or later 

but we should state:

 * Red Hat Enterprise Linux Server 6.5 or later 

we haven't tested using Client or Workstation variants and need to steer customers to using Server only.

Comment 1 RHEL Program Management 2014-12-01 20:23:33 UTC

Since this issue was entered in Red Hat Bugzilla, the release flag has been
set to ? to ensure that it is properly evaluated for this release.

Thanks Mike! We'll add this into our prioritization list.

Cheers,
Athene

Also need to update this to always state the latest RHEL, we actually *can't* install on systems that have their Subscription Manager Release Version pinned to 6.5, it should state:


 * Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6 or 7 Server utilizing the 6Server and 7Server releases.  NOTE: If your system is configured with Subscription Manager to a specific version of Red Hat Enterprise Linux with a Release Version option set to 6.2, 6.3, 6.4 or 6.5 or 7.0 you will not be able to install Satellite 6.
