Red Hat Satellite engineering is moving the tracking of its product development work on Satellite to Red Hat Jira (issues.redhat.com). If you're a Red Hat customer, please continue to file support cases via the Red Hat customer portal. If you're not, please head to the "Satellite project" in Red Hat Jira and file new tickets here. Individual Bugzilla bugs will be migrated starting at the end of May. If you cannot log in to RH Jira, please consult article #7032570. That failing, please send an e-mail to the RH Jira admins at rh-issues@redhat.com to troubleshoot your issue as a user management inquiry. The email creates a ServiceNow ticket with Red Hat. Individual Bugzilla bugs that are migrated will be moved to status "CLOSED", resolution "MIGRATED", and set with "MigratedToJIRA" in "Keywords". The link to the successor Jira issue will be found under "Links", have a little "two-footprint" icon next to it, and direct you to the "Satellite project" in Red Hat Jira (issue links are of type "https://issues.redhat.com/browse/SAT-XXXX", where "X" is a digit). This same link will be available in a blue banner at the top of the page informing you that that bug has been migrated.

Description of problem:
As detailed in https://access.redhat.com/documentation/en-US/Red_Hat_Satellite/6.0/html/Installation_Guide/sect-Red_Hat_Satellite-Installation_Guide-Populating_Red_Hat_Satellite_with_Content-Disconnected_Satellite.html
there are a number of manual steps required to get a content host properly configured, requiring editing several different config files, generating keys and transcribing those keys to other places, fiddling with repositories and services, and installing packages. 

If all of these steps are required, it would be nice if there was some way to reduce the amount of manual configuration and copy-pasting values between config files. All of these steps seem fairly trivial, could we wrap them into a script that steps the user through, in case someone isn't closely following the documentation when trying to set things up? It would reduce the chance of errors creeping in.

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.
