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.
We have found that in some circumstances, upgrade can fail due to Candlepin database migration. There is an external checker script that will verify database consistency which must be incorporated into upgrade process. Please add the following:
/usr/share/candlepin/cpdb --validate
In case of error, please do not carry on with upgrade process and contact Red Hat support. The step is required, our pre-upgrade tool will check if it was executed before upgrade.
WARNING: Utility cpdb and validation option was introduced in Satellite 6.2.14. If the utility is not available (e.g. during 6.3 beta period), perform these steps:
wget https://github.com/candlepin/candlepinproject.org/raw/master/binaries/cpvalidation.zip
