Foreman Blog

Foreman 3.0 has been released. Here is a summary of what’s new in this major version.

Foreman not only can ensure that our systems have a consistent view of our desired content, but also can provision those systems identically across many physical, virtual and public cloud environments. Whether we are using network or image based provisioning, there may be a limit to the configuration and integrations that we can apply to a system with kickstart or cloud-init during the build. Using Ansible in addition to kickstart opens up additional possibilities. In this post, we will look at how we integrate Foreman Provisioning with AWX to help us deliver consistent complete solutions repeatedly in any environment and across them!

Release candidates, design proposals, some nice new scripts for task maintenance, and much more!

Due to a mistake, we accidentally published wrongly versioned packages for the Ansible and Remote Execution plugins in the Debian repository for Foreman 2.5.

Recent Visual refreshment initiative - an ongoing effort to upgrade Foreman to better UX with PF4 react - drives a redesign of multiple commonly used components of Foreman such as navigation, buttons, modals. One of its goals for the upcoming release is to introduce a new consistent user-friendly search.
