Troubleshooting
Problem
Red Hat Satellite 6.x shared service is available with IBM Cloud Pak System.
Though the Red Hat Satellite 6.x shared service instance continues to run after the upgrade of the IBM Cloud Pak System, the Red Hat Satellite Six shared service instance does not work as expected.
Symptom
New vsys pattern instance deployment fails due to the unavailability of the registration server.
Resolving The Problem
Red Hat Satellite Six shared service instance needs redeployment (delete and deploy again) after the upgrade of the IBM Cloud Pak System.
New pattern deployments work fine, only after the redeployment of Red Hat Satellite Six shared service instance.
After the shared service is redeployed (deleted and started again), RHUS Client checks for shared service on all the existing virtual machines (Pattern Instances having virtual machines) at a frequency of 1 hour, and then re-registers existing virtual machines to the satellite server.
Till then, Satellite service and the corresponding repositories are not available to pattern instance virtual machines. You must manually register virtual machines to the Satellite server.
