Is there any progress on this bug? I would like to use the following feature ASAP - Satellite 6.3 Feature Overview: Auto-attach Bootdisk for VMWare [Tech Preview] ( https://access.redhat.com/articles/3358591). I am trying to use Provisioning Method as Boot disk based then I get the following error: Failed to generate ISO image for instance <took out the name> undefined method `bootdisk_raise' for #<Host::Managed:0x007fa68a09ab40> Did you mean? bootdisk_isofile
Updated to Satellite 6.3 on 6/5/18 to take advantage of iPXE booting for UEFI. Experiencing this exact bug trying to provision a HPE Apollo Gen 10 that uses UEFI and iPXE. Chose None for PXE Loader following the 6.3 Provisioning guide: PXE loader - Red Hat Satellite 6.3 supports the booting of both BIOS and UEFI systems. If your host uses PXE provisioning, you must select the correct DHCP file to load. If your host uses PXE-less provisioning, for example iPXE, select None. Choosing from Boot disk drop down menu, selecting Host <hostname> image, gives the exact error mentioned above. As a test, selecting Full host <hostname> image, downloads an ISO. Mounting and examining the ISO shows no EFI / UEFI directory structure, just a boot directory. The error is repeatable. Cheers, Andrea
Also reported as https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1565487 for 6.4 Andrea, UEFI for Bootdisk / iPXE is not supported by Satellite 6.3: https://access.redhat.com/solutions/2674001
Hello all, this is trivial bug, sorry for being late but the workaround is simple: Clone Bootdisk host template or Bootdisk generic template, edit it and remove "bootdisk_raise" lines. Set the template as default in Administer - Settings - Bootdisk and redownload bootdisks. Please note bootdisks based on iPXE does not support HTTPS or/and UEFI. Use Full host disk to use both or PXE-less disovery.
Thanks Lukas, we'll implement using a different tack then, Just curious, would you or your team have any insight you could share on when folks could anticipate seeing UEFI Bootdisk functionality in Satellite 6.x, please? Q4 CY2018 / Q1 CY2019? Cheers, Andrea
Andrea, no plans for UEFI bootdisk at the moment. We just merged UEFI HTTP BOOT feature tho into upstream. So bootdisk is actually not needed in UEFI, you can do straight HTTP or HTTPS boot now.
Yes, 6.4 is good. TY
Verified in Satellite 6.3.5 Snap 1. I performed the steps outlined in the initial bug report. Not only was no error presented, but the bootdisk iso downloaded correctly. Additionally, provisioning a new host with that iso showed that the image was also correct. See attached video for verification.

Thanks. How do I see the attached video. Where is the attached video located?
