Document URL: 

https://access.redhat.com/documentation/en-us/red_hat_satellite/6.9/html-single/configuring_capsules_with_a_load_balancer/index

Section Number and Name: 

4.3.1. Creating Custom SSL Certificates for Capsule Server

and 

4.4.1. Creating Custom SSL Certificates for Capsule Server

Describe the issue: 

Point no: 3 
[Create the certificate request configuration file with the following content:]

Here we just asked them to create CSR with the details, but not mentioned that we have to add those in a file and that file we have to use with the command. 

However, it should be : 

Create the /root/capsule_cert/SAN_config.cfg configuration file for the Certificate Signing Request (CSR) and include the following content:

later on point no 4 has the command, where we can add the above path

Upon review of our valid but aging backlog the Satellite Team has concluded that this Bugzilla does not meet the criteria for a resolution in the near term, and are planning to close in a month. This message may be a repeat of a previous update and the bug is again being considered to be closed. If you have any concerns about this, please contact your Red Hat Account team.  Thank you.

Comment 4 Griffin Sullivan 2023-07-26 13:16:07 UTC
Creating custom SSL certs is being dropped in the next release. See https://github.com/theforeman/foreman-documentation/pull/2249.
