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 Lukas Zapletal 2015-03-17 12:37:41 UTC 
When no OS is assigned for host or host group, provisioning ends up with this weird error instead of nice one.

Fix was already delivered upstream (Foreman 1.8), we only need to cherry pick small patch in core.
Comment 1 Lukas Zapletal 2015-03-17 12:39:04 UTC 
Jason, the patch in foreman core fixes this:

Giving it a POST already, yeah, I am a bad boy!

I am getting correct behavior (Can't be blank) now.
Comment 10 Sachin Ghai 2015-07-08 11:29:30 UTC 
Verified with sat6.1.1 snap11 compose2.

creating a host without associating OS gives "Can't be blank".
