Document URL: https://access.redhat.com/documentation/en-us/red_hat_satellite/6.8/html/upgrading_and_updating_red_hat_satellite/cloning_satellite_server#sec-Cloning_to_Target

Section Number and Name: 2.4.2

Describe the issue: We need an additional command after step 5 to include installation of require database packages when using an external database during cloning.

Suggestions for improvement:

Add step 6:

5. Install the satellite-clone package

# satellite-maintain packages install satellite-clone

After you install the satellite-clone tool, you can adjust any configuration to suit your own deployment in the /etc/satellite-clone/satellite-clone-vars.yml file. 


6. External Database: Install required database packages

If you are utilizing an external database for Satellite, please install these extra utilities:

# yum -y install rh-mongodb34-syspaths rh-postgresql12-syspaths rh-postgresql12-postgresql-evr
