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 Jacob Hunt 2015-09-09 22:04:30 UTC
Description of problem:

I would like to keep my installation media up to date but I do not have an option to enable the updated repos for 6Server and 7Server. Instead I have to manually update installation to sync whatever the latest version is (6.7 and 7.1) and then update all my operating systems, host groups, hosts etc.

Workstation kickstart exist for 6Workstation and 7Workstation but I would like to know why server kickstart repos are missing.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

Comment 2 Jacob Hunt 2015-09-09 22:07:34 UTC
From the attached screenshot you can see kickstart repos

RHEL 7 Server 7.0
RHEL 7 Server 7.1

But on the RHEL 7 workstation you see,

RHEL 7 Workstation 7.0
RHEL 7 Workstation 7.1
RHEL 7 Workstation

The "RHEL 7 Server" isn't showing up.

Comment 4 Brad Buckingham 2015-11-19 16:01:32 UTC
The 'Server' (e.g. 6Server) kickstart repositories were purposely omitted.  The  fact that (with the Server repo) the underlying content of the kickstart changes with each new release of the OS (e.g. 6.6 released, 6Server points to 6.6... 6.7 release, 6Server points to 6.7...etc) causes problems for the underlying provisioning and content management.  In addition, it makes it more difficult for the user to control the content that is actually being exposed.  For this reason, 'Server' repositories were omitted and as new releases of the OS come out, the user can enable the new KS repository for that release, sync it and publish/promote it within their content views thereby providing a controlled introduction of the new release.

The fact that the other variants (e.g. Workstation, Client, ComputeNode) were not omitted is a bug and the software will be updated to exclude them as well.
