Katello 2.0 RC1 Now Available

Howdy,

We are happy to announce, after nearly a year of hard work, our first
release candidate of Katello 2.0! After an overhaul to our
architecture, Katello is now a plugin to Foreman and as such aims to
work as an integrated solution for managing all facets of a host's
lifecycle. With that comes a re-vamped website
(http://www.katello.org) and documentation to allow users to get
acclimated to how Katello works.

Ready to try it out? See the official installation instructions:
http://www.katello.org/docs/installation/index.html

Using Vagrant? Want the streamlined install? Checkout our deployment
script for quick and easy testing, simply:

git clone https://github.com/Katello/katello-deploy.git
vagrant up centos6-2.0

More information on what else katello-deploy can do to streamline your
installation can be found here:

For the complete Changelog:

== Notes ==
Unlike other Foreman plugins, Katello must be installed using it's own
installer on a clean box.

If you haven't already, drop by #theforeman or #theforeman-dev and
chat with the Katello developers about the project!

== Thanks ==
A massive thank you to all those involved in getting Katello to this point:

Hi,
I already have 2 instances of Foreman (1.5.2 & 1.6.0
Can I somehow install Katello on the existing instances or do I need to
install a 3rd instance that will have Foreman & Katello together?

Don't really have a workaround at the moment, unless someone knows
otherwise.

Hi @all,

will the Katello setup work with new puppet server as well?

Correct. Katello cannot currently bolt itself into an existing Foreman
installation and will need to be setup as a separate instance using
it's installer.

Unfortunately, this is a fairly large concern for those of us that already
have large instances of Foreman. Many will likely choose not to deploy
Katello because they don't have the time or resources available to rebuild
yet another environment from scratch.

Peter,

The error you are seeing appears related to this bug -
Bug #7545: service-wait should disable proxy usage in case environmental variables exist - Katello - Foreman – can you confirm whether
or not you had set the http_proxy and https_proxy environment
variables.

This is fair. Due to the amount of work, and large change to Katello
to switch the architecture, we felt that targeting our first release
this way was the best approach. There has been talk of looking at how
to make this attachable to a currently running Foreman. Our concerns,
to give you an idea, would be around data migrations with respect to
the Katello backend services, certs and potentially the hardware specs
of the currently running hardware. Getting user feedback on their
deployment requirements, ideas about how they'd like to deploy it and
the popularity of this request would also help us in planning the
effort (either through user posts, or an issue on Redmine with
up-votes). Thanks for the feedback!

Hi,

We have the same problems with already having foreman in use. But I
don't see it as as big of a problem to setup a separate instance for
katello.

Rebuilding another environment from scratch easily is what we started to
use the foreman for. So we just need to find the correct puppet files
and create a new katello hostgroup…deploy and configure. Couple of
hours work at the most as we only have to do the katello part.

Kind regards,

Jorick Astrego

Hi Eric… yes I do have the http_proxy and https_proxy environment

I am not aware of anyone sharing their experience attempting to use
Foreman to deploy a Katello instance. We would love for you to share
yours once you do.

Understood! I certainly appreciate the work put into the project so far
and look forward to additional deployment options in future versions. I
will take a look at Redmine and see if an issue has already been raised
regarding this topic.

This is fair. Due to the amount of work, and large change to Katello
to switch the architecture, we felt that targeting our first release
this way was the best approach. There has been talk of looking at how
to make this attachable to a currently running Foreman. Our concerns,
to give you an idea, would be around data migrations with respect to
the Katello backend services, certs and potentially the hardware specs
of the currently running hardware. Getting user feedback on their
deployment requirements, ideas about how they’d like to deploy it and
the popularity of this request would also help us in planning the
effort (either through user posts, or an issue on Redmine with
up-votes). Thanks for the feedback!

After your e-mail I looked into it some more and you would have thought
they'd made it easy to do this.

But I must be able to cobble something workable together using the
installer puppet files (https://github.com/Katello/katello-installer).

I have time somewhere this week and will share the good or very bad
news. I'm not doing manual installs anymore!

Hi,
I already have 2 instances of Foreman (1.5.2 & 1.6.0
Can I somehow install Katello on the existing instances or do I need to
install a 3rd instance that will have Foreman & Katello together?
Correct. Katello cannot currently bolt itself into an existing Foreman
installation and will need to be setup as a separate instance using
it’s installer.

Howdy,

We are happy to announce, after nearly a year of hard work, our first
release candidate of Katello 2.0! After an overhaul to our
architecture, Katello is now a plugin to Foreman and as such aims to
work as an integrated solution for managing all facets of a host’s
lifecycle. With that comes a re-vamped website
(http://www.katello.org) and documentation to allow users to get
acclimated to how Katello works.

Ready to try it out? See the official installation instructions:
http://www.katello.org/docs/installation/index.html

Using Vagrant? Want the streamlined install? Checkout our deployment
script for quick and easy testing, simply:

git clone https://github.com/Katello/katello-deploy.git
vagrant up centos6-2.0

More information on what else katello-deploy can do to streamline your
installation can be found here:
https://github.com/Katello/katello-deploy/blob/master/README.md

For the complete Changelog:
https://github.com/Katello/katello/blob/KATELLO-2.0/CHANGELOG.md

== Notes ==
Unlike other Foreman plugins, Katello must be installed using it’s own
installer on a clean box.

If you haven’t already, drop by #theforeman or #theforeman-dev and
chat with the Katello developers about the project!

== Thanks ==
A massive thank you to all those involved in getting Katello to this
point:
