What does KT stand for in the Puppet Environment name?

Latest response

Puppet environment names have the following structure:

KT_ORG_ENV_VIEW_#

where ORG is the organization name, ENV is the lifecycle environment, VIEW is the content view name, and # is an internal sequence number.

maybe Katello?

yeah may be, anyway thanks :)

I confirmed with Red Hat technical support that the prefix "KT_" is an abbreviation of "Katello".

I am interested to know if anyone is using these generated Puppet Environments in their processes/workflows?

I am defining environments for my agents through automation and haven't found a use case for these Katello/Satellite generated environments. Can anyone link to documentation that incorporates these generated environments into the system lifecycle?

Pixel, this won't answer your question, but I happened across something with the title of "Which repository provides katello-agent and puppet packages for Satellite 6 client systems? ". The "solution" for satellite 6.0.x is https://access.redhat.com/solutions/1184073 and for Satellite 6.1... https://access.redhat.com/solutions/1427513.
In satellite 6.1, it says "Users utilizing Red Hat Satellite 6.1 should no longer be using the 'Red Hat Common' repositories for client libraries including Puppet, katello-agent and others."

This bit I put here is not to fit as an answer to your question, but might help those with some isue with katello-agent/puppet package repositories, for satellite 6.0 and 6.1
