Description Rich Jerrido 2016-05-02 22:46:44 UTC
Document URL: https://access.redhat.com/documentation/en/red-hat-satellite/6.2-beta/quick-start-guide/chapter-3-installing-satellite-server

Section Number and Name: 3.4 

Describe the issue: 


Section 3.4, Step 2 provides the following command to install Satellite


# foreman-installer --scenario katello
--foreman-admin-username admin-username \
--foreman-admin-password admin-password \
--capsule-puppet true \
--capsule-puppet-ca-proxy true \
--foreman-proxy-tftp true

This command has two major errors

* the first line doesn't end with a backslash ('\') so bash treats it as two distinct commands

* the  --capsule-puppet-ca-proxy  switch says 'proxy puppet CA requests to $THIS' server. That is not the behavior that is desired. (The command as presented in the docs says 'proxy puppet CA traffic to a server with the hostname "true"'


The "--foreman-proxy-puppetca true" switch says 'enable the Puppet CA feature', which is what is actually desired. 

Suggestions for improvement: 


Replace the command in section 3.4, step 2 with the following. 


# foreman-installer --scenario katello \
--foreman-admin-username admin-username \
--foreman-admin-password admin-password \
--capsule-puppet true \
--foreman-proxy-puppetca true \
--foreman-proxy-tftp true

Made the correction. Changes should be visible the next time the docs are refreshed for Beta.
