OpenSCAP Remediation planned?
I've been unable to find a good answer as to whether SCAP remediation is a planned feature for Satellite 6.x+
Has anything been mentioned on this topic?

Hi Jason,
Don't know if SCAP remediation is planned for Satellite 6.x but would be a good feature to have.
Currently, remediation can be scripted or run manually on a RHEL system. RHEL 6.8 Using OpenSCAP to Remediate the System
Since Satellite is used for production systems I assume the rationale against allow remediation from within Satellite is that you would want to first test any remediation recommendations in non-production. I don't necessarily think Satellite should be used for remediation but rather compliance. If you are a Red Hat customer, you can open an RFE in the Customer Portal to request the feature though.
