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.

Red Hat Product Errata RHSA-2015:1592 0 normal SHIPPED_LIVE Important: Red Hat Satellite 6.1.1 on RHEL 6 2015-08-12 09:04:35 UTC

Description Erik M Jacobs 2014-04-08 14:18:15 UTC
Description of problem:
snap 6 compose 2

When you first start syncing content, Pulp will fetch repodata from the upstream CDN and then start chewing on it. During this time, there is really nothing in the logs or in the UI regarding what's happening. It looks like Satellite is hung/stalled, but top will show that apache/wsgi is using a ton fo CPU power.

Eventually (several minutes -- 5-7+) you will get some status update in the UI.

It would be really beneficial to provide some indication on the sync status page about what's happening under the covers, especially during these times when pulp is doing "something" but providing no real feedback.

Comment 1 RHEL Program Management 2014-04-08 14:25:37 UTC
Since this issue was entered in Red Hat Bugzilla, the release flag has been
set to ? to ensure that it is properly evaluated for this release.

Comment 3 Brad Buckingham 2014-07-29 19:37:17 UTC
The sync management page is currently being updated to utilize dynflow.  Once that is completed, let's re-evaluate if this is still an issue.

Comment 4 Justin Sherrill 2014-07-31 14:08:48 UTC
   ejacobs | jsherrill: if you at least said "processing metadata" in the UI, that's better than what we've got       
   ejacobs | jsherrill: and if yuo show the package count / percentage, that's 1,000,000x better

Comment 5 Justin Sherrill 2014-07-31 14:15:15 UTC
Should be addressed by https://github.com/Katello/katello/pull/4471

Comment 6 Justin Sherrill 2014-08-05 16:29:12 UTC

Comment 8 sthirugn@redhat.com 2014-09-04 14:12:58 UTC
Now when syncing puppet modules - I see "Total module count: 301." and the empty progress bar.   I also see dynflow tasks in Monitor -> Tasks - which also shows 0% and Output: Total module count: 301.  Is this what is expected?

Comment 10 sthirugn@redhat.com 2014-09-04 19:22:17 UTC
Failed. As per Comment 4 - "processing metadata" is not shown now.  I will revisit this bug depending on @ejacobs response.

Comment 11 sthirugn@redhat.com 2014-09-04 19:22:33 UTC
Version Tested:
GA Snap 7 - Satellite-6.0.4-RHEL-6-20140829.0

Comment 12 Mike McCune 2014-09-04 22:26:19 UTC
Puppet syncing is never going to be as informative as syncing RPM based content.

If we want to improve puppet syncing I'd vote we file a separate bug for this as the sync-mgmt page and Products -> Repos list is way more responsive now.

Can you reconsider VERIFYING this?

Comment 14 jcallaha 2015-02-13 18:25:45 UTC
Verified.

Version Tested:
Satellite-6.1.0-RHEL-6-20150210.0
Satellite-6.1.0-RHEL-7-20150210.0

Comment 15 Bryan Kearney 2015-08-11 13:31:54 UTC
This bug is slated to be released with Satellite 6.1.
