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).

Section Number and Name:
N/A

Describe the issue:
The mongo upgrade to WiredTiger storage engine (which is faster than older storage engines) should be documented in both Satellite and Capsule upgrade guides.

To upgrade to mongo WiredTiger, run the installer command as shown below after upgrading to Satellite 6.5.

satellite-installer --upgrade-mongo-storage

Note that this process requires the above installer command to storage the mongodb contents in /var/tmp temporarily.  Please make sure that /var/tmp has enough or more space than the size of /var/lib/mongodb.

Suggestions for improvement: 

Additional information: 
- Note that Satellite 6.4 and Satellite 6.5 get WiredTiger storage engine by default on new installations.
- Currently, the upgrade of storage engine to WiredTiger is supported *only* on Satellite 6.5. This capability for 6.4 will be available when BZ 1715227 is fixed.

Correction:
The actual command is `satellite-installer --upgrade-mongo-storage-engine`
