Satellite 6.2.2 - bootstrap script legacy option is not properly working
Last modified: 2017-07-13 08:41:40 EDT
Description of problem: We tested the legacy option of bootstrap script. The legacy (Satellite 5) functionality of the script is broken. * There is no legacy server option to provide and as a result it just assumes the legacy server to be the foreman server. * There is no prompt for the legacy-password - the legacy password goes through as 'none' The host appears to register ok with foreman/Satellite 6 however: * The host does not join the host collection that is associated with activation key Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): 6.2.2 How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Run below command: ./bootstrap.py -s satellite62.example.com -l admin --legacy-login=sat5-admin --legacy-purge -a Dev_RHEL6 -P -g "Development - RHEL 6" -L BNE -o TEST -v -R Actual results: Not working Expected results: Legacy options should work. Additional info: There is also a mistake in the help message of the script: * --partitiontable=PARTITIONTABLE Name of the Operating System in Foreman that the host is to be associated with

The 'legacy server' is read from /etc/sysconfig/rhn/up2date by the rhn-migrate-classic-to-rhsm script, so there is nothing to prompt for. > > * There is no prompt for the legacy-password - the legacy password goes > through as 'none' > You are correct. The script did not prompt for a legacy password if --legacy-purge is passed. The fixes in this pull request (https://github.com/Katello/katello-client-bootstrap/pull/116) will address this. Give this version a try to see if it resolves your issues. > The host appears to register ok with foreman/Satellite 6 however: > > * The host does not join the host collection that is associated with > activation key > It is possible this failed because the call to rhn-migrate-classic-to-rhsm fails. > Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): 6.2.2 > > How reproducible: Always > > Steps to Reproduce: > 1.

Moving to POST since there is a fix available upstream.
Hi Rich, Thank you so much for your prompt reply. Customer tried git pull (116) and it works as expected. The remaining items from bootstrap script that needs looking after would be configuring puppet on the client: - configure the client puppet.conf file according to the host group - Send puppet CSR to satellite - sign the puppet CSR on satellite - Run 'puppet agent -t' on the client - chkconfig and start the agent Regards, Josephine Alviso GSS - APAC

All of the above functionalities exist and work today. If there are additional features needed (or bugs found), can you open a separate BZ for these?
The changes introduced in https://github.com/Katello/katello-client-bootstrap/pull/116/files are not present in the bootstrap.py shipped with katello-client-bootstrap-1.2.0-4.el7sat.noarch. It turns out these were (accidentally?) removed in commit https://github.com/Katello/katello-client-bootstrap/commit/15c6d151baecf11e5264b9385853abcc5dd6839e therefore they are not in the latest version on github either.

Good find. The removal of those option was unintentional. This PR (https://github.com/Katello/katello-client-bootstrap/pull/140) remediates this.
Verified in Satellite 6.2.5 snap 3, bootstrap now correctly prompts for legacy password if purge option is specified. Mistake in help also fixed.
