Description Timur Daianov 2018-05-16 15:21:08 UTC

Description of problem:
Customer has multiple vmware clusters under vmware datacenter and each of this clusters has it's own resource pool.
When trying to provision vm under any other than first vm_cluster, resource pools can't be selected and only initial once are displayed.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
satellite 6.3.1
esx and vcenter components will be updated later

How reproducible:
configure vcenter compute resource on satellite 6.3.1 and make sure that your vmware datacenter has multiple clusters and each has own resource pools
try to provision new vm in any other than first vm_cluster.
If you select resource pool other than generic it will fail.

Steps to Reproduce:
1.see above

Actual results:
resource pool in select field is from first cluster
provision fail if they are selected, or you have to select generic one and than manually change it.

Expected results:
resource pool should be populated each time you select different vmware cluster.

Comment 3 Timur Daianov 2018-05-17 07:48:51 UTC

ESXs and vcenter are version 6.0.0

Comment 4 Chris Roberts 2018-09-27 18:50:06 UTC

The workaround is to disable caching on the compute resource, clearing the cache does not do anything. 

Working on getting this in for 6.5 and 6.4.z

Created redmine issue https://projects.theforeman.org/issues/27363 from this bug

Comment 6 Bryan Kearney 2019-07-22 14:01:29 UTC

Moving this bug to POST for triage into Satellite 6 since the upstream issue https://projects.theforeman.org/issues/27363 has been resolved.

Comment 12 Lukáš Hellebrandt 2020-01-17 14:46:39 UTC

Verified with Sat 6.7 snap 8.

Tried through WebUI, using steps from OP, both image-based and pxe-based provisioning.

Tried with hammer. There are some issues that I will open a separate BZ against but these are not regression, compared to 6.6.
