Description Jeffrey Warne 2017-07-10 17:45:47 UTC 
It would be great to be able to have the option either on a scheduled bases and/or automatically with sync plans have the related content views publish and promote new versions of themselves. Likewise, it would be great if there was an option to specify how many versions of content views should be retained so that when publishing/promoting a new version of the content view that it automatically removes the older versions past the number specified.

Both of these things can be done via shell script.  I don't see why they can't just be incorporated into a simple selectable option in the UI.

Thank you for your interest in Satellite 6. We have evaluated this request, and while we recognize that it is a valid request, we do not expect this to be implemented in the product in the foreseeable future. This is due to other priorities for the product, and not a reflection on the request itself. We are therefore closing this out as WONTFIX. If you have any concerns about this, please do not reopen. Instead, feel free to contact Red Hat Technical Support.

Note, this should be possible with Ansible modules (https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1630433)
