Description Roman Plevka 2016-10-17 09:50:03 UTC
Description of problem:
PXELoader field in New Host -> Operating System
seems to be hardcoded and contains all possible values. However, If the selected OS has no appropriate Provisioning template set (e.g. PXEGrub), the new host creation will fail with:

"No PXEGrub templates were found for this host, make sure you define at least one in your Fedora 24 settings or change PXE loader"

It would be nice to have the pxe loaders linked to the appropriate provisioning templates and simply not offer them if such provisioning template is not assigned to the used OS.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
sat6.3

How reproducible:
always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. create an OS and make sure it has no PXEGrub template or PXEGrub2 template assigned (this should be by default)
2. try to create a new host with selecting one of the 'Grub*' values for a PXELoader field on Operating System tab of the NEw Host dialog.


Actual results:
All values available to be selected, resulting in error message

Expected results:
The field offers only appropriate loaders (based on the selected provisioning templates for a specified OS)

Sure, valid option, I had no time to do this for the release.
