Description of problem:
Provisioning of rhel65 with the below content
a) from RH content provider
RHEL65
b) from custom content
RHCOMMON [ for katello-agent and puppet packages]
c) Create an activation_key with the above both the subscriptions
d) Create a host_group and attach the above activation_key to the host_group
e) Use the above host_group, while provisioning a rhel65 box
NOTE: I could only test it for now for rhel65. As this is a lengthy process will update when encounter issues with rhel5 or rhel7.
Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
sat6-GA-snap4
How reproducible:
always.
Steps to Reproduce:
1.
2.
3.
Actual results:
provisioning goes in an infinite loop. that is os installation goes in a loop.
Using a AK and CV with just rhel65 content/subscription has no issues.
Expected results:
Should be possible to install katello-agent and puppet and avoid the infinite loop.
Additional info:
stbenjam suggested that the problem is "puppet is telling foreman the wrong name".

Workaround for now.
I had to use fix_hosts to over come this issue and slightly modify it as below.
NOTE:
1) The below step 2) is required for REALM/IPA Integration as ipa-client-install checks for <hostname>.<domainname> and clearly states that FQDN is preferred.
2) Modified few instances of s/@host.shortname/@host/ in fix_hosts
3) Added:
<%= snippet 'fix_hosts' %> before
<%= snippet "subscription_manager_registration" %> in
'Satellite Kickstart Default' template.
Below is the modified fix_hosts template which helped solve this issue for now.
<%#

echo "<%= @host %>" > /etc/hostname
hostname <%= @host %>
cat > /etc/hosts << EOF
