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 Sergei Petrosian 2019-12-02 15:14:01 UTC
Document URL: 
https://access.redhat.com/documentation/en-us/red_hat_satellite/6.6/html/administering_red_hat_satellite/chap-red_hat_satellite-administering_red_hat_satellite-users_and_roles

Section Number and Name:
5. Managing Users and Roles

Describe the issue:
A new feature was added to impersonate other users for example to debug permissions.

Suggestions for improvement: 
Add a section describing this new feature.
Note in particular that audits display actions as performed by a user that was impersonated. Audits do not show the user who impersonated another user and did some action. Therefore, this feature must only be used for debugging purposes.

Additional information: 
Engineering BZ#1763893
