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 Maxim Burgerhout 2016-08-10 15:12:39 UTC 
Description of problem:
The smart_proxy_dynflow_core process expects it's configuration to live in a different directory than the rest of the proxy configs.

This makes changing those settings after installation frustrating, because this is not documented very well.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
6.2.0

How reproducible:


Steps to Reproduce:
1. Install Satellite 6.2
2. Try and change the REx working directories by changing the config file
3.

Actual results:
Doesn't work (settings are stored in a file that isn't used by smart_proxy_dynflow_core)

Expected results:
Either settings are stored in the file smart_proxy_dynflow_core uses, or smart_proxy_dynflow_core uses a file that is stored in the location the installer uses for config files

Additional info:
Ask Ivan Necas, he knows :)

Created redmine issue http://projects.theforeman.org/issues/16050 from this bug
Comment 3 Ivan Necas 2016-08-10 15:44:29 UTC 
I've updated the subject of the bug to better describe the current state without implying how it should be fixed. From the implementaiton perspective, we will address mainly the fact, that the installer attributes should affect the system and that the files will be where smart_proxy_remote_execution_core expects them to be.

patch to add more logging around smart_proxy_dynflow_settings

To apply the patch:

cd /opt/theforeman/tfm/root/usr/share/gems/gems/smart_proxy_dynflow_core-0.1.3
git init; git add -A .; git commit -m original
patch -p1 < ~/ssh-settings-log.patch
service smart_proxy_dynflow_core restart


After running that, please share /var/log/foreman-proxy/ssh_settings.log
file with us
Comment 18 Ivan Necas 2016-11-23 08:08:54 UTC 
Additional note for the workaround:

Make sure the files in /etc/smart_proxy_dynflow_core/ are readable by the foreman-proxy user

chown -R :foreman-proxy /etc/smart_proxy_dynflow_core/
Comment 19 Lukas Pramuk 2017-12-06 17:19:54 UTC 
VERIFIED.

@satellite-6.3.0-22.0.el7sat.noarch
foreman-installer-1.15.6.4-1.el7sat.noarch
rubygem-smart_proxy_dynflow-0.1.8-1.el7sat.noarch
tfm-rubygem-smart_proxy_dynflow_core-0.1.8-1.fm1_15.el7sat.noarch
rubygem-smart_proxy_remote_execution_ssh-0.1.6-1.el7sat.noarch

by the manual reproducer:

1. Have a provisioned host registered to SAT with REX enabled

2. Enable hourly recurring job - Run Command - SSH Default "yum -y install mc"

3. @Host: Check /var/tmp for REX content

4. Run installer and modify ssh remote working dir

@Host: # mkdir /var/tmp2
@SAT: # satellite-installer --foreman-proxy-plugin-remote-execution-ssh-remote-working-dir /var/tmp2

5. Check whether installer modified config file option 

# grep remote /etc/foreman-proxy/settings.d/remote_execution_ssh.yml 
:remote_working_dir: /var/tmp2

>>> installer affects REX settings file

6. @Host: Watch new REX content appearing in /var/tmp2 

>>> the new setting in yaml file is really effective for REX jobs
