RE: For Section 7.1: Upgrading Red Hat Satellite: 
Added restart between steps 8 and 9, as follows:

Step 8. Run the installer with the --upgrade option: 
# katello-installer --upgrade
Important
If you have made manual edits to DNS and DHCP configuration files, they will be overwritten during the upgrade process. To avoid this, you can add the --capsule-dns-managed=false and --capsule-dhcp-managed=false options to the --upgrade installer command. This will keep DNS and DHCP configuration untouched until you set them to managed=true again. 

New Step 9. Restart all services:
# katello-service restart

Step 10. Update the Discovery template: 

Would you please review for accuracy (correct command and correct step number)?
Also, should the restart command be added for Upgrading Red Hat Satellite Capsule Server, please?

Thanks Jo, that looks good to me but defer to Mike to confirm.

That's a good question - IIRC this Bug should address Capsule service restart via similar steps (katello-service): Bug 1102878 - Capsule: need method of restarting capsule services, akin to 'katello-services'

Stephen - is this correct?
Thanks,
