Description Patrick C. F. Ernzer 2012-12-13 09:35:31 UTC
Description of problem:
In chapter 2 of the Sat install guide, in the Hardware Requirements tables (all 4 of embedded, standalone, s390 and x86), we recommend "At least 30 GB storage per software channel (including Base and child channels), in /var/satellite/, configurable at install"

That is not quite enough today (I just filled a 60GB /var/satellite with el5 & el6 plus the child channels rhn tools, supplementary and fasttrack and the sync is not yet finished.)


May I suggest we up the recommended minimum to 40GB?
