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 jaudet 2015-06-24 16:19:05 UTC 
Created attachment 1042788 [details]
Output of foreman-debug from a Satellite 6.1.0 system running RHEL 6.6.

Description of problem:
A hostgroup has an attribute named "parent". I know this because:

* The API documentation states that one can issue an HTTP POST request to
  `/api/v2/hostgroups` and provide a `hostgroup[parent_id]` attribute.
  Hands-on experience shows that this works.
* The API documentation states that one can issue an HTTP PUT request to
  `/api/v2/hostgroups/:id` and provide a `hostgroup[parent_id]` attribute.
  Hands-on experience shows that this works.

The server responds to HTTP PUT requests to `/api/v2/hostgroups/:id` with a JSON
payload that does not include a "parent" attribute. However, this payload
includes a semantically identical attribute named "ancestors". This mismatch is
disorienting and makes using the API harder.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
Satellite 6.1.0. Foreman-debug is attached.

How reproductible:
100%

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Issue an HTTP PUT request to `/api/v2/hostgroups/:id`.
2. Capture the response and examine the keys in the JSON payload.
3. Discover that "parent" is missing, but an equivalent attribute named
   "ancestors" is returned.

Actual results:
See above.

Expected results:
See above

Comment 1 RHEL Program Management 2015-06-24 16:22:36 UTC 
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.
Comment 3 Tomer Brisker 2016-04-12 12:54:01 UTC 
This has been resolved in current 6.2 snaps, moving to ON_QA for verification.
Note for verification: the attribute is named "parent_name", not "parent".
Comment 4 jcallaha 2016-05-25 17:39:57 UTC 
Verified in Satellite 6.2 Beta Snap 12.
