Red Hat Bugzilla – Bug 1165043
facts feature should not be enabled by default
Last modified: 2017-02-23 15:48:19 EST
I dont think it makes any sense to enable it by default, as its only used by discovery, for the rest it could be considered security concern? also, a configuration file template is missing?

Verified with: sat6.1 beta snap5 Satellite-6.1.0-RHEL-7-20150303.0 By default, its set to false. -- [root@dhcp201-171 settings.d]# cat /etc/foreman-proxy/settings.d/facts.yml --- :enabled: false --
Hey Orabin.. Could you please confirm if anything else QE needs to check ?
I would also do this: 1. start the smart-proxy (without changing the config file) 2. add the smart-proxy to foreman 3. check that 'facts' feature is not in the list of features This should be enough but you can also add: 4. change the configuration to: --- :enabled: true -- 5. restart the proxy 6. refresh features of the proxy 7. check that facts is now one of the features
Verified with: sat6.1 beta snap6 compose2 (Satellite-6.1.0-RHEL-6-20150311.1). By default facts feature set to false. -- # cat /etc/foreman-proxy/settings.d/facts.yml :enabled: false -- Restarted the foreman-proxy service, and UI doesn't show the facts features on refreshing features. later, I enabled the facts feature if it works and on enabling it I can see it on UI.
This bug is slated to be released with Satellite 6.1.
