Description vivek singh 2023-05-16 15:21:19 UTC
1. Proposed title of this feature request.
=> There should be some functionality in satellite GUI to compare two content view version . 


2. What are the nature and description of the request?  
CU has configured API for comparision and also aware about hammer command but both these methods are slow for them. They would like a supported method that can be accessed from the GUI, preferably with an option to create a task that they can configure and run manually therselves. They want output in some csv reports which can be easly readable . 


3. Why do you need this? (List the business requirements here).
They need to create reports after every content update for each version of RHEL they have configured on the Satellite. 

4. How would you like to achieve this? (List the functional requirements here).
Navigate to Satellite web UI -> monitor > report template > there be some report for this. 

5. For each functional requirement listed, specify how Red Hat and the customer can test to confirm the requirement is successfully implemented. 
They can try new functionlity and let us know. 
 
6. Do you have any specific timeline dependencies and which release would they like to target (i.e. Satellite 6.8,7)?
NA 
   
7. List any affected packages or components. 
NA 
      
8. Would you be able to assist in testing this functionality if implemented?  
Yes

Hello,

Satellite 6.13 officially supports the ability to compare 2 content view versions.  It is not based on a report as suggested by the RFE; however, it is included within the Content Views UI.

Refer to:
* "Content View versions can now be compared" in the release notes 
  * https://access.redhat.com/documentation/en-us/red_hat_satellite/6.13/html/release_notes/assembly_introducing-red-hat-satellite_sat6-release-notes#ref_enhancements_assembly_introducing-red-hat-satellite 

* Managing Content : Section 7.14. Comparing Content View Versions
  * https://access.redhat.com/documentation/en-us/red_hat_satellite/6.13/html-single/managing_content/index#Comparing_Content_View_Versions_content-management

Will this meet the needs?
