# Satellite-clone

Easily set up a Red Hat Satellite server with restored backup data.

## Getting Started

Throughout this documentation, ensure that you understand the following terminology:

- Source server: Existing Satellite server.

- Target server: new server, to which Satellite server is being cloned.

#### Supported Satellite Versions ####

Satellite 6.12 and newer

#### What you need: ####

  - A blank (vanilla install) RHEL 8 machine (target server). You will run the setup commands here.

  - A backup from a Satellite server (source server) created with `satellite-maintain`. This backup can be with or without pulp data.

  - You will need a Satellite 6 subscription for the cloned machine. With the new Satellite Infrastructure [subscription model](https://access.redhat.com/solutions/3382781) you should have multiple Satellite subscriptions available.

#### Setup ####

On the target server:

1. Clone this repository with git:

   ```console

   # dnf install git-core

   # git clone https://github.com/RedHatSatellite/satellite-clone.git

   ```

2. Install the `ansible-core` package:

   ```console

   # dnf install ansible-core

   ```

Proceed to performing the [cloning process](docs/satellite-clone.md). Please check our [FAQ section](docs/faqs.md) for frequently asked questions.
