openstack-packstack-2012.2.2-0.9.dev406 I found that even when I entered no value for "To subscribe each server with RHN Satellite enter RHN Satellite server URL: " I was asked to answer all of the Satellite related questions (and there are a lot of them). I think this needs to be fixed/changed so that if no value is provided for Satellite URL then we skip the rest of the Satellite questions. To subscribe each server with RHN Satellite enter RHN Satellite server URL: Enter RHN Satellite username or leave plain if you will use activation key instead: Enter RHN Satellite password or leave plain if you will use activation key instead : Enter RHN Satellite activation key or leave plain if you used username/password instead : Specify a path or URL to a SSL CA certificate to use : If required specify the profile name that should be used as an identifier for the system in RHN Satellite : Specify a HTTP proxy to use with RHN Satellite : Specify a username to use with an authenticated HTTP proxy : Specify a password to use with an authenticated HTTP proxy. : Enter comma separated list of flags passed to rhnreg_ks : Version: openstack-packstack-2012.2.2-1.0.dev408.el6ost.noarch Actually now that I think of it I would say the same thing about the HTTP proxy questions, if I entered a Satellite URL and authentication values but not a HTTP proxy URL then I probably don't have HTTP proxy authentication details either.

I'm pretty sure it also happens with other options as well (for example, I opted not to install Cinder - so no need to ask me about creation of the volume). Verified NVR: openstack-packstack-2012.2.3-0.1.dev454.el6ost.noarch 1. Configured packstack answers file relevant attributes[1] with Satellite configuration 2. Ran packstack using the answers file mentioned in step #1 3. Verified Satellite configuration: $ grep serverURL= /etc/sysconfig/rhn/up2date serverURL=http://<SERVER>//XMLRPC 4. Used 'yum update' to verify Satellite updates are functional 5. As for Comment #5, Now packstack doesn't ask for Satellite User/pass if the URL is left blank.
