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.

Doc Type: Enhancement
Doc Text:
You can now manage clients without goferd. This limits the host management functionality only to uploading the package profile after installing, removing, updating packages, and triggering the Satellite tasks such as the applicable errata.

VERIFIED
on sat6.3.0-17

el7,el6 and el5 satellite-tools repository now contain the katello-host-tools package, which contains the yum package profile update plugin.

- This package does not contain the gofer component, so there is no goferd running while using this setup, limiting the host management functionality to only uploading the package profile after installing/removing/updating packages and successfully triggers the satellite tasks, such as 'errata applicability', etc.
in order to trigger the package, pgroup, errata installation, etc. one is able to use REX via SSH.
