How automating Redhat Patchman engine works
- Describe the outcome. Say what you want to happen, in your own words. No node graphs, no field mapping.
- Approve the contract. HumDay writes down exactly what it will do, what it will touch, and what it will never do. You approve it before anything is built.
- See it proven. The program runs and shows you the result before it is allowed near your live Redhat Patchman engine account.
- Grant access, then go live. You approve the specific Redhat Patchman engine operations it may use — and only those.
