Description Jan Hutař 2013-09-16 10:27:51 UTC
Description of problem:
When you follow the guide, please also say customer to update "admin_pass" in section "[katello]" in /etc/splice/checkin.conf, because in 4.4.2. Summary of Enhanced Entitlement Reporting Configuration -> Installation and Configuration of a Subscription Asset Manager server we are advising customer to choose some non-default PASSWORD (by usage of "--user-pass" option)

Just for a reference on how does the section look like by default:

# tail /etc/splice/checkin.conf
login=swreport

[katello]
hostname=localhost
port=443
proto=https
api_url=/sam
admin_user=admin
admin_pass=admin

Step 11 reads:

 Edit the following sections:

[spacewalk]
host=hostname
ssh_key_path=/var/lib/splice/id_rsa-sat
login=swreport

[katello]
hostname=localhost
port=443
proto=https
api_url=/sam
admin_user=admin
admin_pass=password

Substitute hostname for the hostname of the Satellite 5 server and password for your SAM administration password. Enter the location of the SAM SSH key for the ssh_key_path parameter. Save your changes.
