Description Pavel Moravec 2019-07-08 14:34:44 UTC 
Description of problem:
Upgrading mongoDB storage engine to WiredTiger requires /var/tmp to have at least the same free disk space as /var/lib/mongodb occupies. This could make issues for some customers (esp. when they reveal insufficient free disk space even during the upgrade).

Please make /var/tmp working dir configurable.


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
Sat6.5 (upgraded from prior 6.4)

How reproducible:
100%


Steps to Reproduce:
1. Have Sat6.3, low free disk space on /var/tmp, high free disk space elsewhere
2. satellite-installer --upgrade-mongo-storage-engine --some-option-dir=....


Expected results:
2. Have an option to configure such a working dir.

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. Thank you.

Note: Satellite 6.10 drops mongodb with the introduction of Pulp3 and one database (i.e. postgressql)
