Hi Tom, I don't believe that download policy is an attribute of a content view, only of a product repository, as packages aren't really owned by CVs, they are just referenced by CVs. So this change would really be at the product/repo level and affect consumers of that repo. You should be able to change the download policy of a repository at any time regardless of whether it is referenced via a CV or not and then initiate a sync (such as if you are moving from on demand to immediate).

For example, I sync RHEL-7.2 with a download policy of on demand. From there I craft a content view with specific filters and publish and promote it to my production lifecycle environment. At that point, I'd like to use inter-server sync (ISS) to export for use in another organization. However, ISS does not work with on demand. For my use case, I'd like to switch the download policy of the specific repo in the product content view to immediate, then sync it to pull down all the packages. Another use case would be creating unprotected custom product repos ("Publish via HTTP") but then when they make it to my production environment, switching them to protected HTTPS. Is manipulating aspects of repositories in content views something others would find useful? Is this a difficult thing to implement? -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Foreman users" group.
