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 Jitendra Yejare 2015-12-15 15:15:37 UTC 
Description of problem:
I believe we should be able to choose puppet class while creating a Smart Variable. As of now we can do that after editing variable.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):


How reproducible:
Always 

Scenario 1:
Steps to Reproduce:
-> From Config -> Classes -> Class -> Smart Variables, create a new Smart Variable.
Actual results:
-> The smart variable is created in the same class from where we created it.

Scenario 2:
Steps:
-> Edit the above created variable. And Change the Puppet Class it belongs to.
Actual Result:
This changes the puppet class of that smart variable.

Expected results:
we should be able to choose puppet class while 'creating' Smart Variable.

Comment 4 Ivan Necas 2016-04-26 12:16:22 UTC 
I'm not sure being able to select a puppet class for a smart variable while being in a context of one puppet class wouldn't cause too much confusion. What about being able to create a smart variable from the list of smart variables?

IMO that would make more sense and could be prepared for non-puppet smart variables.
Comment 5 Ivan Necas 2016-04-26 12:35:38 UTC 
Moving target to 6.3, as it would not make much sense until we have puppet-independent class variables
Comment 6 Jitendra Yejare 2016-06-06 08:25:36 UTC 
@Ivan,

Good Suggestion ! I would vote for creating a smart var from Smart Variables list which will allow us to choose puppet class there itself.
