8.4. Upgrading Red Hat Satellite Clients

The katello-agent package from Satellite 6.0 is not compatible with Red Hat Satellite 6.1. You need to manually upgrade to the new version of katello-agent on all Satellite clients.

Procedure 8.7. To Upgrade the katello-agent Package:

  1. Log in to the client system and enable the Satellite tools repository.
    # subscription-manager repos --enable=rhel-version-server-satellite-tools-6.1-rpms
    Replace version with 6 or 7 depending on the Red Hat Enterprise Linux version you are using.
  2. Synchronize the repository. Replace ID with the ID of the tools repository.
    # hammer repository synchronize --id ID
  3. Upgrade the katello-agent package.
    # yum upgrade katello-agent

Important

It is currently not possible to upgrade the agent using Red Hat Satellite before upgrading Satellite itself.
