Description Clifford Perry 2008-12-05 15:50:39 UTC
Description of problem:
Within http://www.redhat.com/docs/manuals/satellite/Red_Hat_Network_Satellite-5.2.0/html/Installation_Guide/s1-requirements-database.html we list:

 Additional database requirements include: 
  # ...
  # Auto Segment Space Management 
  # ...

This is in fact incorrect. This is not a requirement for external database deployments. This is a suggested recommendation, which the DBA should determine if needed for their planned size of database deployment. 


I suggest we change the Installation Guide for Satellite for External Databases to change the wording to something like:


 Additional suggested recommendation include:
   # Auto Segment Space Management 


And remove the entry from the Additional database requirements list. 

This has been true for all previously and currently released and maintained Satellite versions and for future releases currently planned. This doc change should be included in the planned Satellite 5.3.0 Installation Guide.

I'd suggest to change wording from 

 Additional database requirements include: 
 # Security Identifier (SID) 
 # Listener Port 
 # Username 
 # Uniform Extent Size 
 # Auto Segment Space Management 
 # UTF-8 character set

to 

 Additional database requirements include: 
 # Security Identifier (SID)
 # Listener Port
 # Username
 # UTF-8 character set
 Additional suggested recommendation for user's default tablespace include:
 # Uniform Extent Size
 # Auto Segment Space Management

Comment 2 John Ha 2009-02-26 06:38:37 UTC
Changed list according to comment #1. Thanks! It's in the latest (5.3.0) build of the Satellite Installation Guide here:
