Problem: Are capsules still a thing?

Expected outcome: Install a capsule.

Foreman and Proxy versions: 3.14

Foreman and Proxy plugin versions:

Distribution and version:

Other relevant data:
I would like to set up a capsule. The only doc I can find is Installing Capsule Server. However, it indicates you need a manifest from Redhat (even for foreman?). And my foreman server doesn’t have capsule-certs-generate so I’m wondering if I’m missing something altogether.

Capsule is the downstream term for Smart Proxy (specifically, a smart proxy that provides content, registration, and certain other services.) Capsules are for Satellite; Smart Proxies are for Foreman. You’ll want to follow the “Installing Smart Proxy server” instructions.
