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.

Comment 1 Sameh Attia 2023-08-10 12:20:32 UTC

Case #03583065 the customer is asking for AIX patching support since the supported clients architecture at [1] does not include AIX.

Also, created a Jira ticket at https://issues.redhat.com/browse/SAT-19452

[1] https://access.redhat.com/documentation/en-us/red_hat_satellite/6.13/html/satellite_overview_concepts_and_deployment_considerations/introduction_to_server_planning#sect-Architecture_Supported_Client_Architectures

Comment 2 Adam Ruzicka 2023-08-10 12:57:27 UTC

Could you please elaborate a bit on what you exactly mean by patching in this context? Do you want to be able to "just" kick of patching on AIX systems, having them pull content from external sources or do you want to manage AIX content (packages and stuff) in satellite itself?

Comment 3 Sameh Attia 2023-08-10 13:42:27 UTC

Yes Adam. The customer needs to have AIX supported in Satellite like RHEL exactly, a content host, REX, dashboard, console, ... etc to be a supported client.
