Comment 13 Andrew Kofink 2017-02-24 12:44:19 UTC 
With this patch, there should be a setting under Administer -> Settings -> Katello named 'Erratum Install Batch Size'. In the web UI, navigate to Administrator -> Settings, select the Katello tab, and change the "Erratum Install Batch Size" setting to a value greater than 0. Perform an erratum install via katello-agent, and notice that the errata is installed in batches of that size.

For example, if "Erratum Install Batch Size" is 5, and you install 11 errata, there will be 3 Actions::Pulp::Consumer::ContentInstall actions in Dynflow under the Actions::Katello::Host::Erratum::Install action.
Comment 16 Peter Ondrejka 2017-03-27 13:12:12 UTC 
Verified in Sat 6.2.9-1, the batch errata installation is split to tasks based on the Erratum Install Batch Size setting as expected.
