Doc Text:	.Information from host group is not completely inherited when provisioning a discovered host in the Satellite web UI When you provision a discovered host, after selecting a host group and trying to customize the host entry, many critical pieces of information are missing. This results in a failed deployment attempt. As a workaround, perform one of the following actions: * Provision the host using hammer: [literal] ---- # hammer discovery provision --name discovered_host_name \ --hostgroup-id your_hostgroup_id \ --organization-id your_organization_id \ --location-id your_location_id \ --new-name new_host_name\ --build true ---- For more information, see link:https://access.redhat.com/documentation/en-us/red_hat_satellite/6.13/html/hammer_cli_guide/reference#hammer-discovery-provision[hammer discovery provision] in `Hammer CLI Guide`. * Configure discovery rules and enable auto-provisioning so that no manual intervention is required to provision a discovered host. For more information, see link:https://access.redhat.com/documentation/en-us/red_hat_satellite/6.13/html-single/provisioning_hosts/index#Creating_Discovery_Rules_provisioning[Creating Discovery Rules] in `Provisioning Hosts`.

Description Avijit Roy 2022-03-28 17:56:54 UTC

Description of problem:

Host group is not populating many information while we select host group from :

Hosts >> Discoverd Hosts >> Click on Provision >> Select Host group >> Customize Host


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

6.10
6.11


How reproducible:

1. Create a normal HG (not nested) with all information. 

2. Discover the host. 

3. Go to Hosts >> Discoverd Hosts >> Click on Provision >> Select Host group >> Customize Host


Actual results:

Many fields like Lifecycle Environment, Content View will be empty. CV and LCE are always blank

Expected results:

All fields should be populated with the exact information mentioned in the Host Group. 


Additional info:

1. This does not happen if we do auto-provisioning. 
2. This does not happen if we Click on create host instead of Customize Host.
3. In case we do not select the HG in the first place and just do Customize Host and then select the HG, it populates all information.

Raising the severity to high as this is impacting most of the Foreman-Discovery customers who don't use Discovery Rules and relies on manual customization of host after discovering the same.

We need to ensure that following while this is being fixed:

** Hosts >> Discovered Hosts >> Click on Provision >> Select Host group >> Customize Host and here the CV+LCE should be properly selected along with the content source and the Media should be auto-selected as well based on how the Hostgroup is configured. 

** After successful customization and submission, The UI of Satellite should not become a blank page. It should really submit the host and come back to the page where it shows the info about the Submitted host for the build. and the Host should be rebooted for build as well. 

   [ This has been reported by some users as well ]

Comment 5 Sayan Das 2022-08-25 11:14:31 UTC

FYI workaround for both of the problems 

A) Use Auto Provisioning to deploy the system via the discovery rule

B) Use a hammer to provision the discovery host e.g. 

# hammer discovery provision --hostgroup-id 2 --organization-id 1 --location-id 2 --build true --name mac5254009f9e0d --new-name myrhel


If we use GUI, we will either end up with blank CV + LCE , or even if we workaround that, then as soon as we submit the host, we will see blank page and the host is not exactly submitted for build.
