Description jcastran 2023-03-30 13:58:51 UTC

Description of problem:
Leapp upgrades of Ansible Tower result in Ansible Tower failing to start/connect.

According to this KCS, it's unsupported.

https://access.redhat.com/articles/2360841

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
RHEL 7 > RHEL 8

Expected results:
Leapp should inhibit the upgrade of Ansible Tower.

The documentation should also list that Ansible Tower is not supported. This should not just be in a kcs.

Hi John, thanks for the report. Is the KCS link correct? I haven't found anything about ansible tower inside and the doc is speaking about conversions, not upgrades.

Comment 4 jcastran 2023-03-30 14:23:39 UTC

Bah. thats the wrong link. My apologies

Comment 5 Petr Stodulka 2023-03-30 14:27:38 UTC

Thanks! It's clear now.

Comment 7 jcastran 2023-07-05 17:23:23 UTC

Amendment:
Leapp should prohibit any Ansible products.

As asked by Martin Kluson in an email thread

> We are not sure what is the best way how to reliably detect that Ansible Tower is installed.

Answer:

  * To detect if Ansible Tower (or Controller by its new name) is installed, a simple test rpm -q automation-controller or rpm -q ansible-tower will tell you
  * To detect if Ansible Tower (or Controller by its new name) is running, a simple test systemctl status automation-controller or systemctl status ansible-tower will tell you
