Description Vrinda 2022-01-19 16:53:15 UTC 
+++ This bug was initially created as a clone of Bug #2024775 +++

Description of problem:

When adding a zone in a list of other operations, you cannot use the newly added zone until the firewall config is reloaded.  The problem is that the role takes a list of firewall settings:

firewall:
  - zone: my_new_zone
    state: present
  - port: 54321
    zone: my_new_zoneno no, this thing is invisible

    state: enabled

If you are using something like satellite, you do not have access to the playbook, so you cannot insert a task to reload between creating the zone and using the zone.

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

Steps to Reproduce:

3.

Actual results:


Expected results:

When adding or removing a zone, the operation should take effect immediately, so that the zone can be used in subsequent operations in the list (or not if the zone was removed).

@rmeggins Do we have a corresponding BZ for RHEL 8?
