Description Jitendra Yejare 2018-08-24 08:09:54 UTC
Description of problem:
Currently, there is no facility to disable 'facts gathering' from the satellite. Which will be helpful in fastening the job invocation process or if some customer is list interested in gathering facts.

We can add a setting for 'facts gathering' for all the jobs in Settings or in a particular job or anywhere in a satellite.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
Satellite 6.4 snap 17

How reproducible:


Steps to Reproduce:
1. Disable facts gathering for a job or for all the jobs.
2.
3.

Actual results:
Currently, no setting which allows us to disable 'facts gathering'

Expected results:
Facts gathering is disabled for a particular job or for all the jobs.

Upon review of our valid but aging backlog the Satellite Team has concluded that this Bugzilla does not meet the criteria for a resolution in the near term, and are planning to close in approximately a month. If you have any concerns about this, please contact your Red Hat Account team.  Thank you.

Thank you for your interest in Satellite 6. We have evaluated this request, and while we recognize that it is a valid request, we do not expect this to be implemented in the product in the foreseeable future. This is due to other priorities for the product, and not a reflection on the request itself. We are therefore closing this out as WONTFIX. If you have any concerns about this, please do not reopen. Instead, feel free to contact your Red Hat Account Team. Thank you.
