Created from redmine issue http://projects.theforeman.org/issues/13566 Upstream bug assigned to paji This was a new feature added in pulp 2.8 that if we use should improve performance for applicability generation look at http://projects.theforeman.org/issues/13284 for more information. As of pulp 2.8 Errata applicability regeneration returns a different task format. Assume we ask errata applicability information for multiple systems. Pulp 2.6-2.7 would return individual statuses for each system and satellite would track that before saying "task complete". The number to tasks could scale up to 1000s of tasks and get out of hand. However with 2.8 a new summary task is now returned. Sat gets to see a collated report and manage better. To add a bit of info: As part of pulp 2.8, errata applicability generation is able to be split across different workers. To not break backward compatibility this behaviour is not done by default and all applicability is confined to a single worker (just like in 6.1). This behaviour means that if we are generating applicability for 100 systems, there are 100 tasks that have to be checked. If a special flag is passed to the applicability generation call, that work is split across many workers and a special task group is returned. Now katello can just check the one task group status rather than the 100 that were generated and they are done in parallel. Moving to POST since upstream bug http://projects.theforeman.org/issues/13566 has been closed Verified in Satellite 6.2 Beta Snap 15. Performed the following steps: 1. Sync a repo, add it to a content view and publish 2. Assign host to the content view 3. Install errata, from the content view, on the host 4. Re-sync the repo and re-publish the content view 5. Check to see if installed errata still shows for the host Since the problem described in this bug report should be resolved in a recent advisory, it has been closed with a resolution of ERRATA.
