Description Jay Dobies 2010-11-04 14:47:42 UTC
3.2  FYI, this is standard SSL. We provide it since most people we've come across aren't too familiar with the details of working with it.

-----

3.3  "In order for the RHUA to communicate with the CDS instances, you must create a secure connection"

Might want to rephrase this to indicate that the connection has to also allow password-less login from the RHUA to CDS.

-----

3.3  Add a note in there that the SSH configuration on the CDS must allow root logins. I learned that one the hard way trying to do the IBM installation.

-----

3.4  Those URLs in the first step will need to change to be 1.2, for instance:

https://cdn.redhat.com/content/dist/rhel/server/5Server/i386/rhui/1.1/iso/rhel-5.5-rhui-1.1-i386.iso

will become

https://cdn.redhat.com/content/dist/rhel/server/5Server/i386/rhui/1.2/iso/rhel-5.5-rhui-1.2-i386.iso

Same for the ISO filenames in the following steps.

-----

3.4  Need to add a step that if the customer is using an external load balancer (i.e. not on the RHUA) the install_CDS.sh script will need to be installed on that instance as well. Yes, that's not a typo, you run install_CDS.sh on the load balancer instance. It's a bit wonky.

<para>
	In order for the RHUA to communicate with the CDS instances, you must create a secure connection. The CDS must also be configured to allow root login without requesting a password. &RHEL; contains the OpenSSH communication program to authenticate connections.

Paths partly correct. Still contain 1.1: rhui/1.1/iso
