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.
What vSphere or ESXi environment precisely is configured as the compute resource?
Note that Satellite 6 does not currently support standalone ESXi servers (bug #1142861).
(In reply to Aaron Thomas from comment #5)
> vCenter is configured as the compute resource, the configuration is not a
> standalone ESXi host.
Which version of vSphere, and which versions are the ESX hosts?
Digging into this a bit more...
It seems that the list comes from rbvmomi gem.
Satellite 61 rbvmomi version is 1.6 -
Upstream 1.8+ uses rbvmomi ~> 1.8
(latest rbvmomi is 1.8.2)
The data on guest oses is coming from rbvmomi file: vmodl.db
I vote for updating to 1.8.2
We do not plan on fixing this for Satellite 6.1. I am closing this out as WONTFIX. If you feel this was done in error, please feel free to re-open with additional information. This is fixed in 6.2.
