Reproducer:

Create several processes that create content hosts (hammer host create) in parallel.

I am able to randomly reproduce on my own box, takes hours to hit with about 100 clients registering.

Note: You may need to configure PassengerMinInstances 2 in /etc/httpd/conf.d/05-foreman-ssl.conf in order to have at least two processes that interfere each other.

Comment 4 Chris Duryee 2016-06-15 17:40:06 UTC
I believe this is the same as 1341338. There are a couple of related queries that rely on the same rails locking mechanisms.
