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 Roman Plevka 2017-08-31 09:21:42 UTC 
Description of problem:
The recent patch for grub (shipped with rhel7.4) has caused a regression for netbooting the 6-octet addresses:

https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1370642#c70

This results in grub trying (and failing) to locate the grub.cfg file in the following format (note the extra '-' at the end of the mac-string):

Client 192.168.100.21 File not found /grub2/grub.cfg-01-52-54-00-a3-87-02-

This might be tackled by tweaking the regular expression in the grub.cfg file, to match an optional ':' in the advertised mac address, however the shipped grub seems to be missing the regexp.mod module ( we might need to fix this too).

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
6.3.0-snap#12

How reproducible:
always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. just create some uefi vm
2. try to provision it using satellite
