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 Mike McCune 2016-07-01 19:26:04 UTC 
Document URL: 

https://access.redhat.com/documentation/en/red-hat-satellite/6.2-beta/installation-guide/chapter-6-upgrading-satellite-server-and-capsule-server

Section Number and Name: 

6.1. Upgrading the Satellite Server

Describe the issue: 

Upgrading from 6.1 to 6.2 can be a lengthy operation. We need to warn the user that this can take many hours depending on the size of the content on the Satellite.

The rough timing is between 50-100 GB / hour of upgrade processing for /var/lib/pulp.

This means if you have 500GB of content it can take between 3-5hours to upgrade or more.

Setting flags.
Comment 4 Mike McCune 2016-07-20 21:40:10 UTC 
Stephen,

This applies to upgrading a Capsule as well as the Satellite. I'd include it one level up!

The wording on the NOTE looks great too
