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.

Bug 1297561 - [RFE] Enhance the installer to check for subscription to specific repositories

Per 6.3 planning, moving out non acked bugs to the backlog

Bz1103884 would cover "checking" the right repos are enabled.

But I'm not sure how we could select in advance. If you are at the point where you have the satellite-installer package installed, then I'm pretty sure you have the right repos enabled - the satellite & satellite-installer package has dependencies on basically everything in the product.

Please reopen if that's incorrect, or have an idea about how we could do the selection with satellite-installer, but I don't think we can fix it in our software.

This seems more to me like an issue across the red hat portfolio of products that could be fixed somewhere like subscription-manager, where one could easily say 
"subscription-manager --enable-product=satellite6" or "subscription-manager --enable-product=rhev" and have it do the right thing.
