Description Xixi 2014-09-15 20:47:23 UTC
Document URL: 
User Guide: https://access.redhat.com/documentation/en-US/Red_Hat_Satellite/6.0/html-single/User_Guide/index.html#chap-Configuring_Hosts
Install Guide: https://access.redhat.com/documentation/en-US/Red_Hat_Satellite/6.0/html-single/Installation_Guide/index.html#chap-Populating_Red_Hat_Satellite_with_Content

Section Number and Name: 
User Guide: 10.4. Registration
Install Guide: Chapter 4. Populating Red Hat Satellite with Content

Describe the issue: 
User Guide: only calls out katello-agent not puppet-agent, suggestion: change "10.4.2. Installing the Katello Agent" to "10.4.2. Installing the Katello Agent and Puppet Agent"
and add puppet-agent instructions to that section alongside katello-agent.

Install Guide: The only mention of Red Hat Common repo "Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6 Server - RH Common RPMs x86_64 Repository" is in "1.3. Red Hat Satellite 6 Server Installation Workflow" section.  It needs to be more prominent - maybe in "Chapter 4. Populating Red Hat Satellite with Content" state what is Red Hat Commons repo and why customer needs to sync it for client registration and installing client side pkgs. 

Suggestions for improvement: 
(pls see above)

Additional information: 
Where to get/install client pkgs for Satellite 6 is becoming a frequently asked question, such as comment on https://access.redhat.com/articles/880853 (public Satellite FAQ)

In the meantime KCS https://access.redhat.com/solutions/1184073 helps to answer this question.
