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 Jan Krocil 2015-04-13 19:32:38 UTC 
Description of problem:
User is unable to fetch a power state of a VM using REST API `"power_action": "status"` ; PUT /api/hosts/:id/power.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
Upstream foreman 1.7.4-1
Downstream Sat 6.0.8

How reproducible:
-

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Setup a compute resource
2. Create a host on that compute resource
3. Run power state check using the rest api against the virtualized host:
[jkrocil@lysandros ~]$ curl --insecure -X PUT -d '{"power_action": "status"}' -u admin -H "Content-Type:application/json" -H "Accept:application/json"  https://my-foreman.domain.com/api/v2/hosts/my-vm.nested.lan/power

Actual results:
{
  "error": {"message":"undefined method `status' for #<PowerManager::Virt:0x007f8e196e0268>"}
}

Expected results:
Valid response with power state info.

Additional info:
Running `"power_action": "state"` instead of "status" works.

The issue is here:
https://github.com/theforeman/foreman/blob/develop/app/services/power_manager/virt.rb#L24

"state" and "status" is being removed from the SUPPORTED_ACTIONS.
There are methods being created dynamically for each power state except the 2.
For "state" though, there is a method defined at L18.
For "status", there is nothing.

Thanks to stbenjam for help.
