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 Marek Haicman 2018-01-21 23:06:56 UTC

Description of problem:
When user generates remediation file by SCAP Workbench, it's expected Workbench will inform if no remediations are available, and thus this effort would be in vain.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
scap-workbench-1.1.6-1.el7.x86_64

How reproducible:


Steps to Reproduce:
1. open scap-workbench
2. tailor out everything except one of separate partition checks (rule_partition_for_var_tmp)
3. try to generate remediations

Actual results:
tool blindly generates empty remediation files (or file with header, but without content)

Expected results:
tool knows there's no remediation, and thus can inform user or does not show the option altogether
