RHBA-2017:2803 - Satellite 6.2.12 bug fix update

Synopsis

Satellite 6.2.12 bug fix update

Type/Severity

Bug Fix Advisory None

Topic

Updated Satellite 6.2 packages that fix several bugs are now available for Red Hat Satellite.

Description

Red Hat Satellite is a system management solution that allows organizations to configure and maintain their systems without the necessity to provide public Internet access to their servers or other client systems. It performs provisioning and configuration management of predefined standard operating environments.

This update adds the additional RFEs:

A new tool, satellite-host-rename, is now provided, which allows customers to rename a Satellite Server. Full documentation can be found in the Server Administration Guide under the "Renaming a Server" section. (BZ#924383)
The hosts API now accepts a parameter, "thin", to return only host names. This provides a more performant call for iterating over a list of hosts. (BZ#1461194)
Temporary subscriptions for guests are now valid for 7 days instead of 24 hours. This change should provide more time to address issues with virt-who without impacting the availability of Red Hat content. (BZ#1418482)

This update fixes the following bugs:

6.2.11 introduced a new dependency on katello-agent which was not represented in the RPM package. The dependencies now resolve correctly. (BZ#1482189)
Several improvements have been made to synchronization of content to Capsules. (BZ#1370302, BZ#1432649, BZ#1448777)
Specific customers encountered an error where synchronization plans stopped updating their status in the web UI. This communication path has been hardened. (BZ#1466919)
Remote execution will no longer execute the same job multiple times if the host has many NICs or if the host belongs to many host groups. (BZ#1480235, BZ#1465628)
Scheduling a recurring job would create duplicate subtasks. This behavior has been fixed, and there are no duplicates. (BZ#1478886)
Large SCAP reports would not upload because of a low HTTP timeout. The timeout has been increased to allow the reports to upload. (BZ#1360452)
The performance of the package page has been improved for customers who have large package downloads. (BZ#1419139)
Satellite 6 was not able to connect to Red Hat Virtualization 4.1 instances. This platform can now be used as a Compute Resource. (BZ#1463264, BZ#1479954)
Package filters were not respecting the package release version correctly. This field is now handled correctly. (BZ#1395642)
Satellite 6 now supporting uploading RPMs whose headers are not UTF-8 compliant. (BZ#1333110)
Regenerating certificates now regenerates Ueber Certificates as well. (BZ#1434948)
The handing of Lifecycle permissions have been improved. (BZ#1317837)
Manual registration was not recording who performed the registration if no Activation Key was used. (BZ#1380117)

Users of Red Hat Satellite are advised to upgrade to these updated packages, which fix these bugs.
