Topic

Updated Satellite 6.2 packages that address errata installation issues on 6.2.11.

Description

Red Hat Satellite is a system management solution that allows organizations to configure and maintain their systems without the necessity to provide public Internet access to their servers or other client systems. It performs provisioning and configuration management of predefined standard operating environments.

This update fixes the following bugs:

• After updating to Red Hat Satellite 6.2.11, errata updates appear to work, but take no action on the host. This was caused by an unexpected error in pulp that was not captured correctly. This error has now been fixed, and errata can be applied. (BZ#1481779)

Users of Red Hat Satellite are advised to upgrade to these updated packages, which fix these bugs.
