Satellite 6.1 Capsule Sync Error: Host did not respond within 20 seconds
Issue
- User attempts to synchronize a Capsule with hammer and receives error:
# hammer capsule content synchronize --id 2
[................................................................................................. ] [75%]
Host did not respond within 20 seconds. Is katello-agent installed and goferd running on the Host?
This error is a very generic error that indicates that the Satellite is unable to communicate with the Capsule.
- The
goferdprocess stops responding on client system which results in issues while applying patches on the client systems.
Environment
- Red Hat Satellite 6.1 with an external Capsule
