Subscription manager name registration fact When registering a host using subscription-manager, force use the specified fact for the host name (in the form of fact.fact ). Subscription manager name registration fact strict matching No If this is enabled, and register_hostname_fact is set and provided, registration looks for a new host by name only using that fact, and skips all hostname matching.

Expire soon days 120 The number of days remaining in a subscription before you are reminded about renewing it. Content View Dependency Solving Default No The default dependency solving value for new content views. Host Duplicate DMI UUIDs [] If hosts fail to register because of duplicate Desktop Management Interface (DMI) UUIDs, add their comma-separated values here. Subsequent registrations generate a unique DMI UUID for the affected hosts. Host Profile Assume Yes Enable new host registrations to assume registered profiles with matching hostname if the registering DMI UUID is not used by another host.

Authorize login delegation API No Authorize login delegation with REMOTE_USER HTTP header for API calls too. Idle timeout 60 Log out idle users after the specified number of minutes. BCrypt password cost 9 Cost value of bcrypt password hash function for internal auth-sources (4 - 30).

BMC credentials access Yes Permits access to BMC interface passwords through ENC YAML output and in templates. OIDC JWKs URL OpenID Connect JSON Web Key Set (JWKS) URL. Typically https://keycloak.example.com/auth/realms/<realm name>/protocol/openid-connect/certs when using Keycloak as an OpenID provider.

Root password ***** Default encrypted root password on provisioned hosts. Unattended URL URL that hosts retrieve templates from during the build. When it starts with https, unattended, or userdata, controllers cannot be accessed using HTTP. Safemode rendering Yes Enables safe mode rendering of provisioning templates. The default and recommended option Yes denies access to variables and any object that is not listed in Satellite. When set to No , any object may be accessed by a user with permission to use templating features, either by editing templates, parameters or smart variables. This permits users full remote code execution on Satellite Server, effectively disabling all authorization. This is not a safe option, especially in larger companies. Access unattended without build No Enable access to unattended URLs without build mode being used.

Clean up failed deployment Yes Satellite deletes the virtual machine if the provisioning script ends with a non-zero exit code. Type of name generator Random-based Specifies the method used to generate a hostname when creating a new host. The default Random-based option generates a unique random hostname which you can but do not have to use. This is useful for users who create many hosts and do not know how to name them. The MAC-based option is for bare-metal hosts only. If you delete a host and create it later on, it receives the same hostname based on the MAC address. This can be useful for users who recycle servers and want them to always get the same hostname. The Off option disables the name generator function and leaves the hostname field blank. Default PXE global template entry Default PXE menu item in a global template - local , discovery or custom, use blank for template default. Default PXE local template entry Default PXE menu item in local template - local , local_chain_hd0 , or custom, use blank for template default. iPXE intermediate script iPXE intermediate script Intermediate iPXE script for unattended installations. Destroy associated VM on host delete No Destroy associated VM on host delete. When enabled, VMs linked to hosts are deleted on Compute Resource. When disabled, VMs are unlinked when the host is deleted, meaning they remain on Compute Resource and can be re-associated or imported back to Satellite again. This does not automatically power off the VM Maximum structured facts 100 Maximum number of keys in structured subtree, statistics stored in satellite::dropped_subtree_facts .

Update hostgroup from facts Yes Satellite updates a host's hostgroup from its facts. Ignore facts for operating system No Stop updating operating system from facts. Ignore facts for domain No Stop updating domain values from facts. Update subnets from facts None Satellite updates a host's subnet from its facts. Ignore interfaces facts for provisioning No Stop updating IP and MAC address values from facts (affects all interfaces). Ignore interfaces with matching identifier [ lo , en*v* , usb* , vnet* , macvtap* , ;vdsmdummy; , veth* , tap* , qbr* , qvb* , qvo* , qr-* , qg-* , vlinuxbr* , vovsbr* , br-int ] Skip creating or updating host network interfaces objects with identifiers matching these values from incoming facts. You can use a * wildcard to match identifiers with indexes, e.g. macvtap* . The ignored interface raw facts are still stored in the database, see the Exclude pattern setting for more details. Exclude pattern for facts stored in Satellite [ lo , en*v* , usb* , vnet* , macvtap* , ;vdsmdummy; , veth* , tap* , qbr* , qvb* , qvo* , qr-* , qg-* , vlinuxbr* , vovsbr* , br-int , load_averages::* , memory::swap::available* , memory::swap::capacity , memory::swap::used* , memory::system::available* , memory::system::capacity , memory::system::used* , memoryfree , memoryfree_mb , swapfree , swapfree_mb , uptime_hours , uptime_days ] Exclude pattern for all types of imported facts (Puppet, Ansible, rhsm). Those facts are not stored in the satellite database. You can use a * wildcard to match names with indexes, e.g. ignore* filters out ignore, ignore123 as well as a::ignore or even a::ignore123::b. B.13. Configuration management settings Setting Default Value Description Create new host when report is uploaded Yes Satellite creates the host when a report is received.

This is useful when the host has no subnet or the subnet does not have an execution proxy. Enable Global Capsule Yes Search for Remote Execution proxy outside of the proxies assigned to the host. The search is limited to the host's organization and location. SSH User root Default user to use for SSH. You can override per host by setting the remote_execution_ssh_user parameter. Effective User root Default user to use for executing the script. If the user differs from the SSH user, su or sudo is used to switch the user.

You can override per host by setting the remote_execution_ssh_port parameter. Connect by IP No Whether the IP addresses on host interfaces are preferred over the FQDN. It is useful when the DNS is not resolving the FQDNs properly. You can override this per host by setting the remote_execution_connect_by_ip parameter. For dual-stacked hosts, consider the remote_execution_connect_by_ip_prefer_ipv6 setting. Prefer IPv6 over IPv4 No When connecting using an IP address, are IPv6 addresses preferred? If no IPv6 address is set, it falls back to IPv4 automatically. You can override this per host by setting the remote_execution_connect_by_ip_prefer_ipv6 parameter. By default and for compatibility, IPv4 is preferred over IPv6. Default SSH password ***** Default password to use for SSH.

Job Invocation Report Template Jobs - Invocation report template Select a report template used for generating a report for a particular remote execution job. Time to pickup 86400 Time in seconds within which the host has to pick up a job. If the job is not picked up within this limit, the job will be cancelled. Applies only to pull-mqtt based jobs. Defaults to one day. B.15. Ansible settings Setting Default Value Description Private Key Path Use this to supply a path to an SSH Private Key that Ansible uses instead of a password. Override with the ansible_ssh_private_key_file host parameter. Connection type ssh Use this connection type by default when running Ansible Playbooks. You can override this on hosts by adding the ansible_connection parameter. WinRM cert Validation validate Enable or disable WinRM server certificate validation when running Ansible Playbooks. You can override this on hosts by adding the ansible_winrm_server_cert_validation parameter. Default verbosity level Disabled Satellite adds this level of verbosity for additional debugging output when running Ansible Playbooks. Post-provision timeout 360 Timeout (in seconds) to set when Satellite triggers an Ansible roles task playbook after a host is fully provisioned. Set this to the maximum time you expect a host to take until it is ready after a reboot. Ansible report timeout 30 Timeout (in minutes) when hosts should have reported.
