> Documentation Title: Transitioning from Satellite 5 to Satellite 6 > Docbuilder Link: http://docbuilder.usersys.redhat.com/22727/ > * "Table 2.1. Comparison of Satellite 5 and Satellite 6 concepts" http://docbuilder.usersys.redhat.com/22727/#chap-Comparing_Satellite_5_and_Satellite_6 - Nice side-by-side comparison table do we want to go into the feature comparison at all? For example the stuff in Todd's Gapstatic document (e.g., no more Monitoring, Solaris support, ISS, future External Database support etc.) I understand these are still under discussion so probably not, just a thought. * The doc doesn't actually talk about how to transition or the tools used yet, but that's because that's still WIP and won't be ready for Sat6 Beta, right? Should it give an overall process overview or preview of pre-requisites and rough process though? * Maybe reference documentation to explain Classic vs. Certificate-based Subscription Management, and Sat Certs vs. Manifests. E.g., https://access.redhat.com/site/documentation/en-US/Red_Hat_Subscription_Management/1/html/MigratingRHN/sat-certs.html or https://access.redhat.com/site/documentation/en-US/Red_Hat_Subscription_Management/1/html/Subscription_Concepts_and_Workflows/index.html#subscr-legacy
Since this issue was entered in Red Hat Bugzilla, the release flag has been set to ? to ensure that it is properly evaluated for this release.
Aren't new books supposed to moving or removing all the Doc Conventions material, How to get Help, and so on? I thought that was either going or being moved somewhere less consipicuous.

I'd be disinclined to discuss or mention features that might or might not happen. It could introduce expectations from customers that we're not prepared to address. > > * The doc doesn't actually talk about how to transition or the tools > used yet, but that's because that's still WIP and won't be ready for > Sat6 Beta, right? Last I heard, correct. The tools weren't available except from the repo; not integrated into the product at all. > Should it give an overall process overview or preview > of pre-requisites and rough process though? I'm guessing that's what Grant's SOE docs do. While going through the Sat5 version it discussed what's required at each end (Sat5 & 6), and a high-level overview of the process. No details, really, because it's not customer-ready. > > * Maybe reference documentation to explain Classic vs. Certificate-based > Subscription Management, and Sat Certs vs. Manifests.

We need to wait until the tools work and we have time to extract material from the SOE docs and flesh this one out.
