      Section Number and Name:
      Chapter 3. Cloning Satellite Server

      Describe the issue:
      This section contains "The Satellite clone tool does not support migrating a Capsule Server to Red Hat Enterprise Linux 8." I suspect this wording is leftover from 6.11 when satellites and capsules could run on either RHEL 7 or RHEL 8.

      The fact that it states "to RHEL 8" causes the reader to wonder if the satellite clone tool can be used on a capsule for other purposes.

      Suggestions for improvement:
      Reword that sentence to just state: "The Satellite clone tool cannot be used on a Capsule Server."

      Additional information:
      The clone tool really will not work on a capsule; the 3rd task checks to see if the satellite RPM is installed.
