Description Tomas Lestach 2015-01-19 16:00:00 UTC
Description of problem:
I'm missing the information, on what OSs and architectures Sat5.7 was released. (Eventually, what clients are supported.)

I didn't find this information neither in Release Notes, nor in the Installation Guide.

(GSS was wondering there's no Sat5.7 on RHEL5 and I wasn't able to point them on official 5.7 docs saying the information.)

Close, if the information is there and I just didn't find it.

Likely more than one customer is going to ask about this (as indicated by questions from GSS so far) -

Need a note in Release Notes on the fact that Satellite 5.7 does not support installing on RHEL 5 so will need to upgrade OS per rhn-upgrade instructions.

Also, the reason why RHEL 5 was dropped as an option for running Satellite 5.7. 

Thanks,

Have updated the release notes and will perform a push to public a little later today.

Comment 5 Dan Macpherson 2015-02-04 00:44:46 UTC
Have added os requirements to the product notes and pushed it out live:
