3.7.3. Transitioning System Groups to Host Collections
Red Hat Satellite 5 uses system groups to maintain collections of multiple systems. Satellite 6 uses host collections to perform the same task. The Satellite transition tools provide options to transition your Satellite 5 system groups to Satellite 6 host collections.
The following example demonstrates a typical use case. Run this command on your Satellite 6 system, and substitute the CSV file with your own:
# hammer import host-collection --csv-file /tmp/exports/system-groups.csv Creating new host_collection: dev Creating new host_collection: test Creating new host_collection: prod Creating new host_collection: east Creating new host_collection: west Creating new host_collection: dbs Creating new host_collection: web Creating new host_collection: apps
You can use the
hammer host-collection list --organization-id ORG-ID to verify that the system groups have been recreated as host collections. Ensure you use the correct organization ID.
You can also log in to the WebUI as an administrator to verify that the host collections were created. Ensure you are in the correct organization, and then navigate to → .
Where did the comment section go?
