Description Rich Jerrido 2014-07-29 13:16:02 UTC
With the out-of-box configuration of Satellite 6 (`katello-installer` with no options), the only method available for the end user to provision a new system is via foreman_bootdisk. This RFE requests setting '--capsule-tftp true' by default , i.e. (when katello-installer is invoked with no options). 

For end users who wish to provision via PXE, this has been an additional step that needed to be done post installation. 

Adding TFTP (by default) will allow:

* The end user to provision using a method other than the bootdisk options
with no further configuration (in the installer)
* An out-of-box experience more similar to Satellite 5.x
* behavior consistent with upstream Foreman, which does ship with TFTP enabled.

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.

Comment 3 Stephen Benjamin 2016-07-14 19:41:57 UTC
This is ON_QA and marked for 6.3?

Anyway, it fails on 6.2.  Not sure why it's not working, tftp is default 'true' on the foreman-proxy module.  

A clean install gives me:

Comment 6 Ondřej Pražák 2017-08-30 10:10:04 UTC
I think this needs changes in satellite-installer, tftp is not enabled on embedded capsule after a fresh install.

Failed.

6.3.0 snap 13

Fixed downstream here:

https://gitlab.sat.lab.tlv.redhat.com/satellite6/katello-installer/commit/99ebd90b16733af3710fd28737ff5b57de2c08f0

Works upstream fine, flipping back to on QA.
