Description of problem:
--------------------------------
When we install a fresh RHEL-8/9 machine to install Red Hat Satellite on it, the "chrony" package is installed by default on it, and is not required to be installed separately. The "chronyd" service is also enabled by default.
Thus, we do not need the following section in our official documentation -
Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Red Hat Satellite 6.16
Actual results:
-------------------
The official document contains the instructions to install "chrony" package, and to configure "chrond" service after installing Red Hat Satellite. However, the package is installed and the service is configured by default, once the RHEL-8/9 machine is created.
Expected results:
-----------------------
Following section should probably be removed from the official documentation -
Additional Info:
-----------------------
Following are the details from my lab Satellite 6.16 installed on RHEL-8 machine -
[root@satellite616-rhel8 ~]# cat /etc/redhat-release
Red Hat Enterprise Linux release 8.10 (Ootpa)
[root@satellite616-rhel8 ~]# rpm -qa satellite
[root@satellite616-rhel8 ~]#
[root@satellite616-rhel8 ~]# rpm -qa chrony
chrony-4.5-1.el8.x86_64
[root@satellite616-rhel8 ~]# systemctl is-enabled chronyd
enabled
After the installation of Red Hat Satellite -
--------------------------------------------------------
[root@satellite616-rhel8 ~]# rpm -qa satellite
satellite-6.16.0-1.el8sat.noarch
[root@satellite616-rhel8 ~]# dnf install chrony -y
