Red Hat is not customizing puppet 3.8 in Satellite 6 in any way. Puppet 3.8.x as part of of Satellite 6.2 is supported by Red Hat. It has been publicly stated in presentations at Red Hat Summit titled "Migrating an existing Puppet deployment into Red Hat Satellite 6" and "Red Hat Satellite 6 roadmap and demonstration", that future-version of Satellite 6.3 will have both puppet 4.x and puppet 3.x. And of course all future-looking statements are open to change. PDF slides: https://rh2016.smarteventscloud.com/connect/sessionDetail.ww?SESSION_ID= 43270 Video: The following link to RH Summit content-portal has the videos but annoyingly requires registration: https://vts.inxpo.com/Launch/Event.htm?ShowKey=32437 When you are logged into it, then visit "Management Track" and find "Migrating an existing Puppet deployment into Red Hat Satellite 6". As for the life-cycle of puppet 3.8.x in Satellite going forward, that is a more nuanced product life-cycle question to be answered by Product Management. You are welcome to follow up with your contacts in RH's Customer Experience & Engagement departments (Sales rep, Technical Account Manager. etc) I hope that helps, James On Wed, Sep 28, 2016 at 1:56 PM, Dan White <d_e_wh...@icloud.com> wrote: > Good idea, but I thought I'd ask in both camps. > Thanks. > > Dan White | d_e_wh...@icloud.com > ------------------------------------------------ > “Sometimes I think the surest sign that intelligent life exists elsewhere in > the universe is that none of it has tried to contact us.” (Bill Waterson: > Calvin & Hobbes) > > > On Sep 28, 2016, at 01:53 PM, Rob Nelson <rnels...@gmail.com> wrote: > > Dan, > > That might be a better question for Red Hat as they often support > bundled/associated EOL > products (like ruby 1.8.7) by themselves once the vendor support ends. > > On Wednesday, September 28, 2016, Dan White <d_e_wh...@icloud.com> wrote: > >> I found a thread from March on puppet-dev (Subject Line: End of Life >> estimate for Puppet 3.X?) >> On which Eric Sorenson said, referring to Open Source Puppet, "As a >> practical matter we're going to have Puppet 3.8 on maintenance and security >> fixes as long as there's a supported PE version that incorporates it." >> >> My question is : How will the EOL of (PE/Open Source) Puppet 3.8 (the last >> of the 3's!) affect Red Hat Satellite 6.x (which contains/incorporates a >> customized Open Source Puppet 3.x) ?? >> >> Dan White | d_e_wh...@icloud.com >> ------------------------------------------------ >> “Sometimes I think the surest sign that intelligent life exists elsewhere in >> the universe is that none of it has tried to contact us.” (Bill Waterson: >> Calvin & Hobbes) >> >> >> -- >> You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups >> "Puppet Users" group. >> To unsubscribe from this group and stop receiving emails from it, send an >> email to puppet-users+unsubscr...@googlegroups.com. >> To view this discussion on the web visit https://groups.google.com/d/ms >> gid/puppet-users/1d73e7fb-23f1-4d9c-ab1e-387490e90c6e%40me.com >> <https://groups.google.com/d/msgid/puppet-users/1d73e7fb-23f1-4d9c-ab1e-387490e90c6e%40me.com?utm_medium=email&utm_source=footer> >> . >> For more options, visit https://groups.google.com/d/optout. >> > > > -- > > Rob Nelson > rnels...@gmail.com > > > -- > You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups > "Puppet Users" group. > To unsubscribe from this group and stop receiving emails from it, send an > email to puppet-users+unsubscr...@googlegroups.com. > To view this discussion on the web visit https://groups.google.com/d/ms > gid/puppet-users/CAC76iT-pF0WDraaPKdKmmZvtGn-uvgVbWCUa12ge% > 2BRx0qNHJ0w%40mail.gmail.com > <https://groups.google.com/d/msgid/puppet-users/CAC76iT-pF0WDraaPKdKmmZvtGn-uvgVbWCUa12ge%2BRx0qNHJ0w%40mail.gmail.com?utm_medium=email&utm_source=footer> > . > For more options, visit https://groups.google.com/d/optout. > > -- > You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups > "Puppet Users" group. > To unsubscribe from this group and stop receiving emails from it, send an > email to puppet-users+unsubscr...@googlegroups.com. > To view this discussion on the web visit https://groups.google.com/d/ms > gid/puppet-users/80aa2613-3532-4092-93ea-949005faf505%40me.com > <https://groups.google.com/d/msgid/puppet-users/80aa2613-3532-4092-93ea-949005faf505%40me.com?utm_medium=email&utm_source=footer> > . > > For more options, visit https://groups.google.com/d/optout. > -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Puppet Users" group.
