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 Rich Jerrido 2017-07-26 09:45:47 UTC 
In the host-configuration guide (section 10.5), please add a section on the minimum permissions required to run the bootstrap script. Upstream docs here (https://github.com/Katello/katello-client-bootstrap/blob/master/README.md) in the 'Permissions' section. 


Additionally to create a role for a user with the minimal permissions to run bootstrap.py a user can use hammer to generate this: 


ROLE='Bootstrap_User'
hammer role create --name "$ROLE"
hammer filter create --role "$ROLE" --permissions view_organizations
hammer filter create --role "$ROLE" --permissions view_locations
hammer filter create --role "$ROLE" --permissions view_domains
hammer filter create --role "$ROLE" --permissions view_hostgroups
hammer filter create --role "$ROLE" --permissions view_hosts
hammer filter create --role "$ROLE" --permissions view_architectures
hammer filter create --role "$ROLE" --permissions view_ptables
hammer filter create --role "$ROLE" --permissions view_operatingsystems
hammer filter create --role "$ROLE" --permissions create_hosts

Comment 13 Vincent S. Cojot 2017-10-11 15:10:45 UTC 
On 6.2.12, here's what I had to add to create a role for a 'readonly' and 'registration only' user:

[root@sat6 ~]# hammer  role filters --id 22

Comment 14 Vincent S. Cojot 2017-10-11 15:16:48 UTC 
Here's how I involed bootstrap (if that matters):
bootstrap.py -l register -p password -s ${SAT_HOSTNAME} -o ${SAT_ORGANIZATION} -a ${ACTIVATION_KEY} -L ${SAT_LOCATION} -g ${SAT_HOSTGROUP} -O ${SAT_OS_NAME} --enablerepos=* --skip-puppet --force
