Description Christopher Brown 2018-11-28 22:45:48 UTC 
Description of problem:

When there are no route table subnet associations in AWS, SSA fails with the following error, which is misleading:

Smartstate analysis needs a VPC whose enableDnsSupport/enableDnsHostnames settings are true!

Some additional logic was recently added to detect if a gateway is present:

https://github.com/ManageIQ/manageiq-providers-amazon/commit/4df81dff80d8b63512e3cf04d808d8d090aba753#diff-cd84545274981012ba66a77b6c85cf48

and I think this code does not anticipate this condition.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
5.9.5.3-1

How reproducible:
Always using the following steps

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Remove any associated subnets from route tables
2. Remove smartstate VM and associated resources in AWS (if they exist)
3. Run SSA

Additional info:

The error message should be updated to be more granular with regards to the error or if this is not possible, broader to encompass all checks that take place. Also product documentation.

Verified in 5.11.0.15. When there is no gateway or no valid route on gateway error "Smartstate analysis needs a VPC whose enableDnsSupport/enableDnsHostnames are true and valid gateway/route setting!" is displayed.
