Katello repositories

Hola,

Investigating the Katello repos, I see there are 4 - pulp, client,
candlepin and katello

At the moment my understanding of what these are:

katello - the foreman plugin, goes on the "foreman/katello server"
(satellite server in RHEL speak)
candlepin - used on the foreman/katello server, not needed on the clients
pulp - used on the foreman/katello server, not needed on the clients

client - the end point that goes on each "enrolled" system. Put onto
systems that have their software managed by Foreman/Katello.

Is that a roughly correct breakdown?

(I'm trying to improve our current Content Views and I want to put some
repos in 'client' and some in 'not client' for various services)

cheers
L.

That is correct. The client repo is all you should need on clients.
