Solution Verified - Updated -

Issue

  • How can Satellite 6 be configured in order to make consistent backups of the data in it via virtual machine snapshot technology?
  • Is there a better procedure to stop Satellite services before the snapshot creation than using katello-service stop and to start it back after the snapshot than using katello-service start?
