Description Jan Hutař 2019-01-08 10:21:13 UTC

Description of problem:
Because kickstart layout on CDN is different to RHEL 8 ISO layout, it would not possible to provision RHEL 8 Beta (and GA) for disconnected customers

Disconnected customers who want to sync kickstart repos are supposed to follow this docs:

    https://access.redhat.com/articles/1375133

but layout (how files/dirs are organized) of KS on CDN differs from layout on RHEL 8 Beta ISO file (I have used "RHEL-8.0-20181113.1-x86_64-dvd1.iso")


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
satellite-6.5.0-5.beta.el7sat.noarch (snap #10)


How reproducible:
always


Steps to Reproduce:
1. Sync this content (you need manifest with "Red Hat Beta" subscription) via Content -> Red Hat Repositories:
    # hammer repository list
    ---|-------------------------------------------------------------------|-----------------------------------------------------|--------------|---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
    ID | NAME                                                              | PRODUCT                                             | CONTENT TYPE | URL                                                                             
    ---|-------------------------------------------------------------------|-----------------------------------------------------|--------------|---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
    34 | Red Hat Enterprise Linux 8 for x86_64 - AppStream Beta Kickstart  | Red Hat Enterprise Linux for x86_64 Beta            | yum          | https://cdn.redhat.com/content/beta/rhel8/8/x86_64/appstream/kickstart          
    35 | Red Hat Enterprise Linux 8 for x86_64 - AppStream Beta RPMs       | Red Hat Enterprise Linux for x86_64 Beta            | yum          | https://cdn.redhat.com/content/beta/rhel8/8/x86_64/appstream/os                 
    30 | Red Hat Enterprise Linux 8 for x86_64 - BaseOS Beta Kickstart     | Red Hat Enterprise Linux for x86_64 Beta            | yum          | https://cdn.redhat.com/content/beta/rhel8/8/x86_64/baseos/kickstart             
    31 | Red Hat Enterprise Linux 8 for x86_64 - BaseOS Beta RPMs          | Red Hat Enterprise Linux for x86_64 Beta            | yum          | https://cdn.redhat.com/content/beta/rhel8/8/x86_64/baseos/os                    
2. Provision some RHEL 8 Beta host (I have first discovered it, then provisioned it) so we know it works
3. Remove these kickstarts via Content -> Red Hat Repositories page (click "minus" icon in right column)
    # hammer repository list

4. Now follow the KB article to mimic disconnected Satellite and sync the BaseOS kickstart again
    https://access.redhat.com/articles/1375133

    Content -> Subscriptions -> Manage Manifest -> Red Hat CDN URL configure "http://.../pub/sat-import/" (here I have hit bug 1664261 and were not able to proceed)
    And enable and sync the "Red Hat Enterprise Linux 8 for x86_64 - BaseOS Beta Kickstart" again
5. Click "Build" button to rebuild the host (note you might hit bug 1664016 here)


Actual results:
I do not know yet. I assume it wont work.


Expected results:
It have to work.

Comment 2 Jan Hutař 2019-01-08 10:22:29 UTC

I need to test this and maybe this is not a bug at all. I just have a theory but can not test because of bug 1664016
