Why did the Satellite 6.2 installer spend a long time relabelling /var/lib/pulp during an upgrade?
Issue
- As part of the steps required to upgrade Satellite 6.2 to a newer minor release, I need to run the installer in upgrade mode:
# satellite-installer --scenario satellite --upgrade
- Why did the Satellite installer spend a long time relabelling the content in
/var/lib/pulpas part of the upgrade?
