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 of problem:

The "workers" field on the capsule health status page reports all of the pulp workers, but this includes the resource manager and scheduler. Only the "reserved_resource_worker" workers actually process tasks, the other two are for scheduling.

This leads to confusion if the user shuts down all of the pulp workers on a capsule, since it appears that workers are still running.

NOTE: it is technically correct that the scheduler and resource manager are workers, but the page is still confusing :) Also, it's not possible to get the scheduler entry to disappear since if you shut it down, there's nothing available to remove the record.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): 6.2.7



Steps to Reproduce:
1. view capsule health status
2. perform "service pulp_workers stop" on the capsule
3. refresh capsule health page

Actual results: two workers running

Expected results: zero workers running


Additional info:

Thank you for your interest in Satellite 6. We have evaluated this request, and we do not expect this to be implemented in the product in the foreseeable future. We are therefore closing this out as WONTFIX. If you have any concerns about this, please feel free to contact Rich Jerrido or Bryan Kearney. Thank you.
