Section Number and Name: 

Procedure 9.14. To Enable BMC Power Management on an Existing Capsule Server:

Describe the issue: 

we can now drive that configuration of the BMC feature entirely from the satellite-installer routine. This should instruct users to enable it via the following flags:

    --foreman-proxy-bmc           Enable BMC feature (default: false)
    --foreman-proxy-bmc-default-provider  BMC default provider. (default: "ipmitool")

eg:

# satellite-installer    --foreman-proxy-bmc=true --foreman-proxy-bmc-default-provider=ipmitool



Suggestions for improvement: 

Additional information:

Assigning to Zac for review.

Zac - looks like we need to update the procedure to replace Step 1. and Step 2. with a single step that tells users to use the 'satellite-installer' command with the above two options.
