2.2. Associating Objects with the Default Organization and Location

Because Satellite 6 supports multiple organizations (logical management divisions) and locations (physical divisions of content delivery), you need to associate your templates, subnets, and other items needed for provisioning with the default organization (Default_Organization) and the default location (Default_Location).
Use the following procedures to make all the pre-'seeded' content available to the default organization (Default_Organization):

Procedure 2.1. To Specify the Default Location:

  1. On the main menu, click Administer → Locations and then click Default_Location in the Name column.
  2. Click Organizations to display the list of organizations.
  3. Click Default_Organization to add it to the Selected items list, and then click Submit.

Procedure 2.2. To Specify the Default Organization:

  1. On the main menu, click Administer → Organizations and then click Default_Organization in the Name column.
  2. Click Locations to display the list of available locations.
  3. Click Default_Location to add it to the Selected items list, and then click Submit.

Procedure 2.3. To Associate the Domain with the Default Organization:

  1. On the main menu, click Infrastructure → Domains to open the Domains screen.
  2. Click example.org in the Description column. This opens the Edit Domain screen where you can update the details of the domain.
  3. On the Domain tab, change the DNS domain to reflect the host name of the Satellite.
  4. Set the DNS Capsule value to the Satellite server.
  5. On the Locations tab, click Default_Location to add it to the Selected items list. This associates the domain with the default location.
  6. On the Organizations tab, click Default_Organization to add it to the Selected items list. This associates the domain with the default organization.
  7. Click Submit to apply your changes.

Procedure 2.4. To Select the Default Subnet:

  1. On the main menu, click Infrastructure → Subnets.
  2. Click Import Subnets from the drop-down list on the right side, and complete the following information. Remember to update the details to suit your own deployment:
    • Name: Provisioning_Net
    • Network address: 172.17.13.0
    • Network mask: 255.255.255.0
    • Gateway Address: 172.17.13.1
    • Primary DNS Server: 172.17.13.2
    • Secondary DNS Server: Leave blank
    • Start of IP Range: 172.17.13.100
    • End of IP Range: 172.17.13.150
    • VLAN ID: Leave blank
  3. Click Submit.
  4. Click Provisioning_Net to edit the subnet.
  5. On the Domains tab, select example.org
  6. On the Capsules tab, change the DNS, DHCP, and TFTP capsules to reflect the host name of the Satellite.
  7. On the Locations tab, select Default_Location under All items to associate the domain with the default location.
  8. On the Organizations tab, select Default_Organization under All items to associate the domain with the default organization.
