Satellite 6: Upgrading to Satellite 6.3
We have a new and shiny Satellite 6.3.0 available as of now, so I just bit the bullet and upgraded my lab's Satellite.
The first thing to know if you now have the foreman-maintain
tool to do some
pre-flight checks, as well as drive the upgrade. You'll need to enable the
repository (included as a part of RHEL product) :
subscription-manager repos --disable="*" --enable rhel-7-server-rpms --enable rhel-7-server-satellite-6.3-rpms --enable rhel-server-rhscl-7-rpms --enable rhel-7-server-satellite-maintenance-6-rpms yum install -y rubygem-foreman_maintain
Check your Satellite health with :
# foreman-maintain health check Running ForemanMaintain::Scenario::FilteredScenario ================================================================================ Check for verifying syntax for ISP DHCP configurations: [FAIL] undefined method `strip' for nil:NilClass -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Check for paused tasks: [OK] -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Check whether all services are running using hammer ping: [OK] -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Scenario [ForemanMaintain::Scenario::FilteredScenario] failed. The following steps ended up in failing state: [foreman-proxy-verify-dhcp-config-syntax] Resolve the failed steps and rerun the command. In case the failures are false positives, use --whitelist="foreman-proxy-verify-dhcp-config-syntax"
And finally perform the upgrade with :
# foreman-maintain upgrade run --target-version 6.3 --whitelist="foreman-proxy-verify-dhcp-config-syntax,disk-performance,repositories-setup" Running Checks before upgrading to Satellite 6.3 ================================================================================ Skipping pre_upgrade_checks phase as it was already run before. To enforce to run the phase, use `upgrade run --phase pre_upgrade_checks` Scenario [Checks before upgrading to Satellite 6.3] failed. The following steps ended up in failing state: [foreman-proxy-verify-dhcp-config-syntax] Resolve the failed steps and rerun the command. In case the failures are false positives, use --whitelist="foreman-proxy-verify-dhcp-config-syntax" Running Procedures before migrating to Satellite 6.3 ================================================================================ Skipping pre_migrations phase as it was already run before.
