Description Barnaby Court 2013-12-05 18:16:16 UTC 
Description of problem:

Distributors that are currently created by the command line & the unit tests are  using the distributor_type_id as the distributor_id.  Katello specifies a different value for the distributor_id.  This has led to a number of bugs including 1038309 that were not found until Katello had a release in hand.  

Our client & server code should be reworked to use the id generated by mongo automatically instead of creating one.  Have the server (mongo) generate a unique distributor id automatically if one is not specified on the API, or use the object id that mongo is already creating.  The client code should be updated to not specify the distributor ID.  

We could also consider removing the distributor_id entirely and just use the id from mongo.
