Description soham 2024-02-27 20:19:26 UTC

Description of problem:
Nested inheritance of hostgroup is not honored in Red Hat Satellite 6

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
6.14

How reproducible:

Consider the below scenario:
hostgroup HG1 is created with some params of LCE CV Content Soruce etc, now I create a nested hostgroup HG1/HG2 from it and change a param. thereafter I create another nested HG1/HG2/HG3 and the initial params for this hostgroup are of hostgroup HG1 and not HG1/HG2.



Expected results:
Ideally HG1/HG2/HG3 should by default have what HG1/HG2 has.

Additional info:
Workaround is to manually change the params.

Maybe https://github.com/Katello/katello/pull/10841#issuecomment-1936567351  already fixes the issue ?

Moving this bug to POST for triage into Satellite since the upstream issue https://projects.theforeman.org/issues/36897 has been resolved.

Comment 11 Pavel Novotny 2024-05-23 19:17:07 UTC

Verified in Satellite stream snap 59:
satellite-6.16.0-0.5.stream.el9sat.noarch
rubygem-katello-4.13.0-0.3.pre.master.20240508152445git651453e.el9sat.noarch

By following the reproducer from comment 0,
nested group HG3 correctly inherits values from parent group HG2 and not from grandparent group HG1.
