Description Jerome Marc 2016-07-19 21:18:50 UTC
Description of problem:
When adding a new Ansible Tower provider, users are not prompted for the zone the configuration provider should be added to. CF simply adds the new provider to the current zone (e.g. UI zone). However this zone doesn't necessarily provide 'Provider Inventory' role (e.g. UI zone). It is then impossible to refresh the provider relationships and power states.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
5.6.0.13.20160624114606_13a9153 

How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Login in CF4.1 from a UI appliance (within a UI Zone)
2. Configure a new Ansible Tower connection
3. Try to refresh the relationships & power states

Actual results:
CF fails to refresh as the UI appliance/zone does not have a 'Provider Inventory' role.

Expected results:
It should be possible to select which Zone we want the Ansible Tower provider to be added to, similar to all infrastructure & cloud providers.

Additional info:
A workaround is to add the 'Provider Inventory' role to the current zone. This is not acceptable for production deployment.
