Description of problem: The Katello Agent/Goferd has been deprecated and has been replaced by remote execution. The "Satellite WebUI -> Administer -> Settings -> Content -> Use remote execution by default" is by default set to "No". Since Katello Agent/Goferd has been deprecated, this setting should either be set to 'Yes' by default or should be removed. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): satellite-installer-6.13.0.2-1.el8sat.noarch How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Navigate to '"Satellite WebUI -> Administer -> Settings -> Content"' 2. Look for "Use remote execution by default" setting. Actual results: The "Use remote execution by default" setting is set to "No" Expected results: The "Use remote execution by default" setting should either be set to 'Yes' by default or should be removed considering katello agent/gofer method has been deprecated. Additional info: Use remote execution by default -> If this is enabled, remote execution is used instead of katello-agent for remote actions
Created redmine issue https://projects.theforeman.org/issues/36083 from this bug
As discussed on the PR in https://github.com/Katello/katello/pull/10449#issuecomment-1437088717 We think that this should be postponed and the setting should be removed as part of the upcoming work removing katello-agent, instead of setting it by default to true.
