Description Matthew Yee 2022-09-10 17:24:56 UTC 
Created attachment 1910960 [details]
image showing the services that will reboot.

Description of problem:
Traces will restart the host without warning.


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
6.12


How reproducible:
100%

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Install an old version of RHEL.
2. Install tracer.
3. Update host errata etc. 
4. Review traces and restart all specified apps. Often a large update will require reboots. 

Actual results:
Reboots host without warning.

Expected results:
This operation should warn the user that the server will be rebooted. Yes, the user should read over the applications that require restart after patching in the traces menu but it would be a better user experience to warn the user of a reboot to prevent needless downtime (or worse, data loss).

Comment 1 Ondrej Gajdusek 2022-09-13 08:41:20 UTC 
This is a regression from the old host UI which warns the user that the host will be rebooted.
I as a user would expect the new host UI to provide the same UX as the old one in this regard.

Verified on 6.15 - Snap 7

Steps to Verify:
1. Enable rhel8 sat client, appstream and base os
2. Sync the repos, and add them to a CV
3. Publish the CV
4. Create an AK with Library LCE, and the published CV
5. Register Host with this AK
6. Enable traces through the Traces tab
7. SSH into the host, and run yum downgrade dbus. This will generate several traces, including a static trace

Expected Results:
When selecting the static trace, either by itself or through the select all checkbox, the button changes to Reboot Host and a banner pops up to let you know the host will reboot.

Actual Results:
When selecting the static trace, either by itself or through the select all checkbox, the button changes to Reboot Host and a banner pops up to let you know the host will reboot.
