Any info on a release date for Satellite 6.2 ??

Just installed 6.1.8

Any release notes yet?

RHBA-2016:1084 just released which is Satellite 6.1.9

Is there an ETA for Satellite 5.8 GA release? 5.8 is mentioned here: https://access.redhat.com/articles/1322933

6.2.2 is released - https://access.redhat.com/errata/RHBA-2016:1885

6.1.10 date missing? And estimate for NEXT version of 6.1.x and 6.2.x

Hi,

Both 6.2.3 - https://access.redhat.com/errata/RHBA-2016:2108 and 6.2.4 - https://access.redhat.com/errata/RHBA-2016:2699 were released, but they are missing from the above table...

The 6.2.6 update has been released and is missing from the above table - https://access.redhat.com/errata/RHBA-2016:2958

Satellite 6.2.9 has been released. Please update.

Until the above table is updated the 6.2.9 update errata can be found at the following link: https://access.redhat.com/errata/RHBA-2017:1191

according to this list 6.1.9 was released 5 days before 6.1.8

interesting....

Thanks Rob, fixed now - should be 2016-05-17 not 2016-03-17, apologies for the typo!

when 6.3 will come out from beta ?

This table is missing the 6.3 Beta release of Dec 7 2017.

Is this article not getting updated anymore? 6.3.1 is already out since a few weeks.

Information for the releases Satellite 6.3.1 Update and Satellite 6.3.2 Update appears to be inaccurate.

May be a mistake in the 6.3.1 and 6.3.1 release date. year seems incorrect.

Added EOL dates , and sat6 to foreman mapping.

This document needs to be updated with 6.7.1 that is already released

This document needs to be updated with 6.7.3 as thats already released and have patched our satellite successfully

Abhinit, 6.7.3 release notes added. Thanks!

This doc needs an update for already released 6.7.4 Red Hat Satellite 6.7.4 Release

Any news on when Satellite 7 is released?

There is some information at https://www.unixsysadmin.com/red-hat-satellite-7/ .

Hi Fred,

I can only tell you 6.8.1 has been released this week.

There are no signs of a 7.0 beta yet, so I do not expect it before Christmas 2020 or even New Year 2020.

Regards,

Jan Gerrit

A link to information on upcoming major versions would be helpful, i.e. Satellite 7.0.

Hi Redhat team

Citing that 6.9 is now conceived , it would be nice if the redhat satellite upgrade helper in https://access.redhat.com/labsinfo/satelliteupgradehelper is updated please as it still shows 6.8 as the target version.

Regards Abhinit

Hello, thanks for the feedback, we have just updated the upgrade helper. Enjoy!

According to this page, the 6.9 GA release should be available, but trying to upgrade results in

Following repositories are not available on your system: rhel-7-server-satellite-6.9-rpms

The 6.9 Tools repo also seems to be missing.

This happens even after refreshing the manifest.

Just a blind guess: won't subscription-manager refresh help? maybe followed by yum clean all; rm -rf /var/cache/yum/*?

I tried those things, of course.

In any case, the missing repos are there now.

When will Satellite 7 be released that runs RHEL 8?

Ed, We are working towards Satellite 7 in NA Spring 2022 that we are planning on running on RHEL8. These plans are subject to change but this is our target.

(edited to correct from 2021 -> 2022)

This document needs to be updated with the 6.10.3 release

Actually 6.10.4 is out as of March 29

Satellite 6.10.7.1: Strange Behaviour Problem with Custom Product Repos for example EPEL 8, Repo, attached to Content View for years, for Content Host Subscription attached and Repo enabled in Repository-Set - but on Content Host side Repo is not available.

Hello, Reiner.  This Knowledge-Centered Service article about Satellite release dates is not the right place to ask for help about a problem you are seeing with a particular Satellite version.  Please open a support case for your problem and Red Hat technical support would be happy to help you! (Just so you know, Satellite 6.10 is currently in its maintenance phase of life according to the Red Hat Satellite Product Life Cycle page and reaches its end of life this May 2023.)

Hello Bernie, you are right, I has a opened a support case before my Comment, just to mention that faster and shorter Release Cycles could not prevent that a Bug which can only be discovered on client side!, identified on Satellite Rel. 6.8, currently is not fixed. Workaround is available and works.

Is Satellite Server for RHEL9 on the roadmap?

Two questions;

When will Satellite be released on RHEL 9 ? To be frank its a PITA to have to run one instance of RHEL 8 just to support Satellite.

When will Satellite 7 be released ?

Thanks

Current plans for Satellite/Capsules to run on RHEL 9 is 6.16 which is ~May, 2024. There are no plans for a Satellite 7 but instead we will stay on the 6.x release cadence.
