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 Justin Sherrill 2017-09-26 16:58:06 UTC 
Hi,
the Hypervisors are now also host objects since 3.0 (http://www.katello.org/docs/3.0/release_notes/release_notes.html) because content host and host objects are now unified. At the moment this means hypervisors show up as "Hosts with no reports" on dashboard. If you disable foreman reporting for the host they show up as "Hosts with alerts disabled" which is where I think they should be when they will never send reports.
this is something that has been bothering me for some time but I have worked around the issue previously: https://github.com/RedHatSatellite/katello-attach-subscription/pull/13


Because I fixed another issue with the virt-who checkins I came across the code again and I've decided to suggest a fix for the issue because I think its just a one-liner :)

The more general question is if my thought is correct - I only use vmware hypervisors where they really will never send any reports but if you have another hypervisor that does checkin with foreman it may be wrong. Thats why I decided to put it into the create of a hypervisor - this should only happen when the hosts are normally not managed by foreman ie the will never send reports.

Greetings
Klaas
