RHEL Engineering is moving the tracking of its product development work on RHEL 6 through RHEL 9 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 "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira and file new tickets here. Individual Bugzilla bugs in the statuses "NEW", "ASSIGNED", and "POST" are being migrated throughout September 2023. Bugs of Red Hat partners with an assigned Engineering Partner Manager (EPM) are migrated in late September as per pre-agreed dates. Bugs against components "kernel", "kernel-rt", and "kpatch" are only migrated if still in "NEW" or "ASSIGNED". 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 "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira (issue links are of type "https://issues.redhat.com/browse/RHEL-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 of problem:
I tried to install the RHEL 7.3 beta onto a PowereEdge R720 by hosting the installation media on the virtual CD/DVD and by hosting the media on a web server, and was unable to select either in the GUI installer.
Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
7.3 Beta
How reproducible:
Bring up the idrac console
Mount the 7.3 beta ISO on the virtual CD/DVD
Set the next boot to the virtual CD/DVD
Power up the node
The installer starts running
Select the language and hit Next
At the next screen the installation source shows an error
Select the installation source icon
At this point, only the PERC RAID controller is available to be selected for devices. The virtual CD/DVD is not shown and so cannot be selected.
The radio button to select a network URL for installation media is ghosted out and cannot be selected to do an installation loading the media from a web server.
Steps to Reproduce:
1. See above.
Actual results:
Installation source shows an error.
Expected results:
Installation should be successful.
Should be able to select the virtual CD/DVD from the installer for media source.
Should be able to select the radio button to enter a URL for hosting the media on a web server.
