      Problem Statement

      Here is the link

      https://docs.redhat.com/en/documentation/red_hat_satellite/6.15/html-single/monitoring_satellite_performance/index#configuring-pcp-data-collection_monitoring

       

      and here is the recommendation

       

      cd /var/lib/pcp/pmdas/openmetrics
      echo "https://satellite.example.com/metrics" > config.d/foreman.url
      ./Install 

       

       

      Instead, it could be something like

       

      cd /var/lib/pcp/pmdas/openmetrics
      echo "https://$(hostname -f)/metrics" > config.d/foreman.url
      ./Install 

       

      The reason is because, in general, the customer will copy/paste the command and will move on, as consequence, the implementation will fail, once the FQDN is different.

       

      Note that there is no warning about the FQDN to be updated.

       

      Here, we can see using the recommended one and the new one

       

      By doc

      [root@wallsat615]# echo "https://satellite.example.com/metrics" > config.d/foreman.url
      [root@wallsat615]# cat config.d/foreman.url
      https://satellite.example.com/metrics
