Description Jayant Bhatia 2023-02-06 18:34:30 UTC 
Document URL: 

https://dxp-docp-prod.apps.ext-waf.spoke.prod.us-west-2.aws.paas.redhat.com/documentation/en-us/red_hat_satellite/6.13/html-single/managing_hosts/index?lb_target=preview&check_logged_in=1


Section Number and Name: 

11.2. Remote Execution Workflow


Describe the issue: 

If "Satellite WebUI -> Administer -> Settings -> Remote Execution -> Prefer registered through Capsule for remote execution" is set to "Yes", then all the remote execution jobs on the registered host is executed by the Capsule to which the host is registered.

The section "11.2. Remote Execution Workflow" in mentioned documentation URL talks about following: "When you run a remote job on hosts, for every host, Satellite performs the following actions to find a remote execution Capsule to use.".
However there is no mention of "Prefer registered through Capsule for remote execution" setting anywhere in the documentation which plays a major role in finding remote execution Capsule to use. If "Prefer registered through Capsule for remote execution" setting is set to "Yes", it gets the priority above all the other conditions which are used to find remote execution Capsule.  


Suggestions for improvement: Inclusion of "Prefer registered through Capsule for remote execution" setting in the above mentioned section within documentation.

Hello!
The setting is in fact there under different name.
Created PR to correct the name of the setting: https://github.com/theforeman/foreman-documentation/pull/1984
