Plugins » Katello

Can you be more specific about "does not work"? Is your problem identical with the problem I reported on the email list or is it different? My problem is that smart proxy/capsule requires a client SSL cert while the discovery image is hardcoded not to use one... (https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/foreman-users/IUXx_ZkKlU4)

From the email list:

1. Foreman-proxy/capsule and the foreman discovery image are not compatible. (See http://projects.theforeman.org/issues/7822 and https://github.com/theforeman/foreman-discovery-image/blob/master/root/usr/bin/discovery-register#L47)
2. The katello installer has no options for controlling whether the capsule uses SSL or not, so you can't make them compatible even for a test.
3. You have to point the proxy.url at foreman itself, not the proxy/capsule. proxy.type needs to be "foreman"

To fix 1, I assume the installer would be required to issue a certificate to the foreman discovery image, then install it in the image, then build the image from scratch. Changes to the discovery-register code would also be required.

At the very least, pointing at the foreman instance instead of the proxy should be integrated into the process documented here: https://github.com/theforeman/foreman_discovery. Once the discovery-register code has been fixed, a manual process for installing a recognized certificate in the foreman discovery image could be added.
