Created attachment 926707 [details] Controller repo issue Description of problem: I encounter a problem of repo configuration issue. ( see log) yum update could not install packages ( including puppet ones) The rhel-osp-installer was stuck on 60% and Gui shows "WaitUntilHostReady" Action: Actions::Staypuft::Host::WaitUntilHostReady Input: {"host_id"=>5, "current_user_id"=>1} Output: {"status"=>false, "poll_attempts"=>{"total"=>742, "failed"=>0}} We must report theses problems of repos , and timeout. currently there is no timeout. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): How reproducible: Steps to Reproduce: 1.install staypuft and use wrong repo or subscription manager we might give wrong user/password / repo links or names 2.check the status of the deployment 3. Actual results: installation doesn't timeout Expected results: Bad REPOs / subscription manager issues must be reported , and installation should be aborted Additional info:
Some thoughts here: 1. there is no hook that I'm aware of to get the status from anaconda, so the only thing we can do is set a timeout for the *entire* provisioning step which is very difficult to do. Depending on the environment, provisioning can take a long time. 2. Perhaps we could alter the kickstart so that it launches the install in vnc and provide a link to see the vnc (this might not even work, but it's possible) Petr, any thoughts here?
I think first step here would be to validate rhn account details when the user inputs the detail on the installer.
a) I think at least some timeout would help, see https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1110528 b) Would be nice. Possibly monitor that there is new output and timeout if not.
