Red Hat Satellite engineering is moving the tracking of its product development work on Satellite to Red Hat Jira (issues.redhat.com). If you're a Red Hat customer, please continue to file support cases via the Red Hat customer portal. If you're not, please head to the "Satellite project" in Red Hat Jira and file new tickets here. Individual Bugzilla bugs will be migrated starting at the end of May. If you cannot log in to RH Jira, please consult article #7032570. That failing, please send an e-mail to the RH Jira admins at rh-issues@redhat.com to troubleshoot your issue as a user management inquiry. The email creates a ServiceNow ticket with Red Hat. Individual Bugzilla bugs that are migrated will be moved to status "CLOSED", resolution "MIGRATED", and set with "MigratedToJIRA" in "Keywords". The link to the successor Jira issue will be found under "Links", have a little "two-footprint" icon next to it, and direct you to the "Satellite project" in Red Hat Jira (issue links are of type "https://issues.redhat.com/browse/SAT-XXXX", where "X" is a digit). This same link will be available in a blue banner at the top of the page informing you that that bug has been migrated.
Proposed title of this feature request
Add leapp prerequisites Ansible role
What is the nature and description of the request?
We have a job template for the upgrade but unfortunately not for setting up the prerequisites:
~~~
You can use a job template to upgrade your Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7 hosts to Red Hat Enterprise Linux 8.
Prerequisites
Ensure that your RHEL 7 hosts meet the requirements for the upgrade to RHEL 8. For more information, see Planning an upgrade in the Upgrading from RHEL 7 to RHEL 8 guide.
Prepare your hosts for the upgrade. For more information, see Preparing a RHEL 7 system for the upgrade in the Upgrading from RHEL 7 to RHEL 8 guide.
Enable remote execution feature on Satellite. For more information, see Chapter 10, Configuring and Setting up Remote Jobs.
Distribute Satellite SSH keys to the hosts that you want to upgrade. For more information, see Section 10.8, “Distributing SSH Keys for Remote Execution”.

Why does the customer need this? (List the business requirements
here)
Preparing the system should also have an Ansible role available.
@Pavel: Hi, is there an ansible role which would prepare a rhel7 host for upgrade to rhel8 as per #0 that we could take, package and ship with Satellite?
Upon review of our valid but aging backlog the Satellite Team has concluded that this Bugzilla does not meet the criteria for a resolution in the near term, and are planning to close in a month. This message may be a repeat of a previous update and the bug is again being considered to be closed. If you have any concerns about this, please contact your Red Hat Account team. Thank you.
Thank you for your interest in Red Hat Satellite. We have evaluated this request, and while we recognize that it is a valid request, we do not expect this to be implemented in the product in the foreseeable future. This is due to other priorities for the product, and not a reflection on the request itself. We are therefore closing this out as WONTFIX. If you have any concerns about this feel free to contact your Red Hat Account Team. Thank you.
