Cloning this bug for RHEVM as the same issue is seen in 3.3 as well. +++ This bug was initially created as a clone of Bug #1057574 +++ Description of problem: From Guide Me link, Add Host using SSH PublicKey Authentication fails with "Error while executing action: Cannot install Host with empty password." Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): Red Hat Storage Console Version: 2.1.2-0.33.el6rhs (CB 15) ovirt-host-deploy-java-1.1.2-1.el6ev.noarch ovirt-host-deploy-1.1.2-1.el6ev.noarch How reproducible: 100% Steps to Reproduce: 1. Click on "Clusters" and create a New Cluster 2. Select the created Cluster and click on "Guide Me" 3. Click on "Configure Host" 4. Enter the mandatory fields and select the Authentication type as " SSH PublicKey" 5. Copy the key displayed in the SSH PublicKey field to /root/.ssh/authorized_keys on the host to use public key authentication 6. Click on OK Actual results: Add Host fails with error "Error while executing action: Cannot install Host with empty password." as it's not detecting that the user has selected the SSH PublicKey Authentication instead of Password Authentication Expected results: Add Host with SSH PublicKey Authentication should work from the "Guide Me" flow as well. PS: It works fine in the normal Add New Host flow. Additional info: Screenshot and log-collector report attached
