A few things...
For anyone out there interested in sharing their experiences, we're
looking at installing Satellite server 3.7. Any comments on the
following?
1. Stand-alone database versus embedded database. To have full control
over the DB, I'm leaning towards embedded, but leaning towards SA for
disaster recovery. We will have a small deployment, so it may be
efficient
to just do a text dump of the embedded Oracle database and back that up.
It
would have to be pretty small as our backup network isn't high speed.
It
could also be a cold backup in the early morning hours.
2. Looks like our security group will not allow some of the firewall
rules
we require for the server itself. We may be getting a corporate patch
management solution (www.patchlink.com) for all OSs. Has anyone ever
tried
somehow integrating Satellite server with another patch management
solution?
Pros/cons/feedback welcome...
