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 of problem:
satellite-installer is not updating os distro description of the satellite itself
Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
6.14
How reproducible:
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Install RHEL 8.7
2. Install fresh Satellite 6.14 and run the initial installer combination
3. Check the fact value of the satellite host (All hosts - satellite.name.com)
4. Yum update OS to 8.9
5. Rerun the installer satellite-installer, satellite-installer -S satellite
6. Check the os fact value again it is still on the previous version and not
showing 8.9
Actual results: OS fact is not getting updated no matter what combination to run.
However, the installer log shows it's grabbing the values correctly, but they are not reflected on the web GUI.

~~~
Expected results: webgui should show the latest OS version.
Additional info:
We need to clarify why removing the satellite as a host is not recommended.
Documentation says only this and nothing more.
~~~
WARNING
Satellite Server is listed as a host itself even if it is not self-registered. Do not delete
Satellite Server from the list of hosts
~~~
a. Why it's created in the first place?
b. Why it's not recommended to delete it?
c. Removal and rerun installer recreates the host record with the correct OS fact, assuming it's not the correct way because host id is changed. Are there any negative effects of this?
We also have this
