Red Hat Satellite 6 Administration (RH403)

COURSE OVERVIEW

Learn how to configure Red Hat Satellite 6 to deploy and manage Red Hat Enterprise
Linux systems and software

Red Hat Satellite 6 Administration (RH403) is a lab-based course that explores the con-
cepts and methods necessary for successful large-scale management of Red Hat® En-
terprise Linux® systems. You will learn how to configure Red Hat Satellite 6 on a server
and populate it with software packages. You will use Red Hat Satellite to manage the
software development life cycle of a subscribed host and its configuration, and learn
how to provision hosts integrated with software and Ansible® configuration manage-
ment upon deployment.

This course is based on Red Hat Enterprise Linux 8 and Red Hat Satellite 6.6.
