Red Hat Satellite engineering is moving the tracking of its product development work on Satellite to Red Hat Jira (issues.redhat.com). If you're a Red Hat customer, please continue to file support cases via the Red Hat customer portal. If you're not, please head to the "Satellite project" in Red Hat Jira and file new tickets here. Individual Bugzilla bugs will be migrated starting at the end of May. If you cannot log in to RH Jira, please consult article #7032570. That failing, please send an e-mail to the RH Jira admins at rh-issues@redhat.com to troubleshoot your issue as a user management inquiry. The email creates a ServiceNow ticket with Red Hat. Individual Bugzilla bugs that are migrated will be moved to status "CLOSED", resolution "MIGRATED", and set with "MigratedToJIRA" in "Keywords". The link to the successor Jira issue will be found under "Links", have a little "two-footprint" icon next to it, and direct you to the "Satellite project" in Red Hat Jira (issue links are of type "https://issues.redhat.com/browse/SAT-XXXX", where "X" is a digit). This same link will be available in a blue banner at the top of the page informing you that that bug has been migrated.
Description of problem:
If I'm promoting content to an environment for the first time (or even if not the first time for that matter) and something causes this process to fail somewhere along the way, pulp will leave content from this partial promotion in its local filesystem, which to me is not the best thing to do, not to say that it could lead to complications in the future, when the promotion does work eventually. I'd like to see promotions and syncs behave more like a database transaction, where partial successful operations get "rolled back" and only 100% successful operations get "committed" to the system.

See BZs https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=798299 and https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=798301 for more information on how I came to see partial committed content to my system. Since my promotion failed, I should not see content for my custom SystemEngine -> Hourly repository but I did have content as shown here:
