Description Justin Sherrill 2018-06-18 19:38:57 UTC

Description of problem:

A user on irc hit an issue where their compute resource was unreachable (connections would get a timeout).  

They could not delete the compute resource
They were unable to get to the hosts edit page to disassociate the hosts (would hang loading)
There was no hammer command to disassociate

I had the user run:

 Host.find_by(:name => "foo.example.com").disassociate!

And then try to delete, and that worked fine.

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


How reproducible:
satellite-6.3.1-3.el7sat

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Provision some host off a compute resource
2. Make the compute resource unreachable via a timeout
3. Attempt to delete the hosts

Actual results:
Very difficult


Expected results:
Should be easy

Comment 1 Ivan Necas 2018-06-19 11:38:52 UTC

There is a bulk action in the UI to discassociate hosts from the the compute resource, from the list hosts page: I've tested and it doesn't require connection to the compute resource to perform those.

The missing hammer command is tracked in https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1356126
