This Bug is being filed to include the steps for 'Disabling Red Hat web console on Satellite' in official Satellite 6.13 documentation.


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


Section Number and Name:

There should be a new section preferably within "Chapter 7. Host Management and Monitoring Using Red Hat Web Console" for disabling Red Hat web console on Satellite.


Describe the issue: 

Below are the steps that should be included as mentioned in https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2168503.
~~~
1) run satellite-installer --no-enable-foreman-plugin-remote-execution-cockpit to tell the installer to stop managing cockpit related things
2) Go into Administer > Settings > Remote Execution and set the "Cockpit URL" to be blank. This should make the web console button disappear
3) On your satellite, uninstall rubygem-foreman_remote_execution-cockpit package

Also note, starting with 6.13 iirc, cockpit integration can be independently enabled/disabled on capsules, including the internal one. If you want to be extra safe, in addition to the three steps above you can also run the installer with --foreman-proxy-plugin-remote-execution-script-cockpit-integration=false
