Doc Text:
You can select the RHEL version as the Guest OS while deploying a host with Satellite’s VMWare compute resource. While the RHEL 9 Guest OS is available as an option, it is not currently configurable via Satellite with VMware compute resource because RHEL 9 was not yet added to the underlying VMware library. The option will be available in a future release.

Description Nagoor Shaik 2022-02-23 07:59:50 UTC
Description of problem:
Currently we can select RHEL 9 as the Guest OS while deploying a host with Satellite + VMWare compute resource

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
Satellite 6.10 
Satellite 7.0 latest snap

How reproducible:
100%

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Configure a VMware compute resource 
2. Create a host and navigate to Virtual Machine tab and check the Guest OS (RHEL 9 is not visible)
3. This can also be verified through Compute Profiles page as well

Actual results:
RHEL9 guest OS is not configurable via Satellite with VMware compute resource.

Expected results:
RHEL9 guest os should be available

Moving this bug to POST for triage into Satellite since the upstream issue https://projects.theforeman.org/issues/34498 has been resolved.

Comment 3 Lukáš Hellebrandt 2022-04-07 10:17:11 UTC
FailedQA with Sat 6.11 snap 15.0.

Used reproducer from OP and neither RHEL 9 or CentOS 9 are in the Guest OS list.

RN draft:

RHEL 9 is shown as an option you can select as the Guest OS while deploying a host with Satellite + VMWare compute resource. However, RHEL 9 guest OS is not currently configurable via Satellite with VMware compute resource, as RHEL 9 has not yet been released. The option will be available in a future release.

Final RN:
You can select the RHEL version as the Guest OS while deploying a host with Satellite’s VMWare compute resource. While the RHEL 9 Guest OS is available as an option, it is not currently configurable via Satellite with VMware compute resource because RHEL 9 was not yet added to the underlying VMware library. The option will be available in a future release.

This have been fixed by Ewoud in https://github.com/fog/fog-vsphere/pull/281
which is part of rubygem-fog-vsphere-3.6.0

Comment 20 Gaurav Talreja 2023-02-17 17:17:38 UTC
Verified.

Tested on Satellite 6.13.0 Snap 11.0

Version:
foreman-3.5.1.6-1.el8sat.noarch
foreman-vmware-3.5.1.6-1.el8sat.noarch
rubygem-fog-vsphere-3.6.0-1.el8sat.noarch
rubygem-rbvmomi2-3.6.0-2.el8sat.noarch

Steps:
1. Configure a VMware compute resource 
2. Create a host and navigate to the Virtual Machine tab and check the Guest OS
3. Create Compute Profile, select it, and check the Guest OS

Observation:
RHEL 9 along with CentOS Stream 9 as Guest OS is available, while creating a host as well as for creating Compute Profiles

Later tried RHEL9 PXE/network-based provisioning on VMware, which also works.
