Description Sayan Das 2022-11-18 16:10:28 UTC
Document URL:

https://access.redhat.com/documentation/en-us/red_hat_satellite/6.11/html-single/managing_content/index#Importing_Content_content-management

Section Number and Name: 
Chapter 4. Importing Content ( sat 6.12 )
Chapter 6. Importing Content ( sat 6.11 )


Describe the issue: 

Satellite 6.11 has introduced a setting i.e. "Allow deleting repositories in published content views" which is by default set to True and now, deletion of any RedHat or Custom repo is directly possible from the Content --> Products page.

This was a big behavioral change and functionality improvement but This could already lead to the accidental deletion of repos from satellite if a user is not aware of this function. 


Suggestions for improvement: 

In the KB https://access.redhat.com/solutions/3180551 , under the "For Red Hat Satellite 6.11 and above" section, I have explained how the "Allow deleting repositories in published content views" option works.

It was requested by multiple engineers to have it documented inside "Chapter 4. Importing Content" or "Chapter 6. Importing Content" as a separate section.
