Note: This bug is displayed in read-only format because
the product is no longer active in Red Hat Bugzilla.
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.
It would be great to be able to run custom scripts on a smart proxy as well, this is particularly useful in environments where clients that cannot connect directly to the foreman server.
E.g. you have a hook that when you create a host it connects to the servers iLO to configure it first. If the foreman server cannot connect directly to the iLO this useless, running the script from the smart proxy would be a better solution, especially in situations where you have proxies all over the world.
Can this be accomplished with changes to networking behavior, effectively directing Satellite Server to host communications through the Capsule. It seems like a better solution than adding more complexity to the Capsule.
The other options we have come up with are:
- use a http proxy (squid)
- use port forwarding
- use SSH tunnel
- copy script to Capsule & and get the hook to run it on the capsule via a something like: "ssh user.com "./path/to/script <args>"
The first 3 options are obviously less secure and I really don't like them. Option 3 could work I guess
