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.

Description Tom McKay 2014-10-31 12:47:06 UTC 
While attempting to create a new host on Sat-6.0.4, I entered a Name "thomasmckay-sam" that had already been taken; proper validation red error box appeared. I then changed the name to "rpi-sam" in the form to a unique one and submitted again. The following appeared

<pre>
Failed to create a compute rhevm1.satellite.lab.eng.rdu2.redhat.com (RHEV) instance rpi-sam.released-el7.satellite.lab.eng.rdu2.redhat.com: Name must be formed of alphanumeric characters, numbers or "-_.".
</pre>

This leads, of course, to a situation where the entire new form must be reloaded and all values re-entered. After that the "rpi-sam" name works fine.

Upstream bug component is Hosts
Comment 5 Tomer Brisker 2016-03-17 09:36:06 UTC 
I could not reproduce in current upstream - attempted to create a host with existing name, got validation error, changed name, host was created with no problem.
From upstream discussion appears the second failure (after changing the duplicate name) was caused by an invalid name given to RHEV leading to the failure and was unrelated to the previous failure.
Moving to ON_QA for verification.

VERIFIED:
# rpm -q foreman
foreman-1.11.0.9-1.el7sat.noarch


Steps:

Please, note here I checked only name "test6-sam" is accepted by the form or not
https://cisco-b200m1-03.rhts.eng.bos.redhat.com/hosts/test6-sam.rhts.eng.bos.redhat.com

I am not sure whether the instance is created or not properly

There was no need to reload the form and re-enter the values
Comment 8 Tazim Kolhar 2016-04-05 06:05:08 UTC 
Please note,

Here are the steps:

Create a host with a name already been taken.
It gives error : Name "test7-sam" that had already been taken

Then, I changed the name to "test8-sam". There was no 
need to load the form again
All other values were retained
