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 Jan Hutař 2018-06-26 07:57:00 UTC 
Description of problem:
`hammer host create ...` fails with "undefined method `name' for nil:NilClass"


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
satellite-6.4.0-9.beta.el7sat.noarch


How reproducible:
always


Steps to Reproduce:
1. # hammer -u admin -p changeme host create --architecture-id="3" --compute-resource-id="2" --domain-id="3" --environment-id="5" --ip="148.172.224.43" --location-id="5" --mac="94:e3:d9:06:72:48" --medium-id="10" --name="jhutar$RANDOM" --operatingsystem-id="3" --organization-id="6" --partition-table-id="141" --puppet-proxy-id="1" --root-password="\xea\xae\x8f\xf0\x98\x87\x8a\xe9\xb5\xa8\xd0\x9e\xec\x8b\xa4\xe6\xa9\x88\xe0\xae\x88\xe1\x8b\xb8\xe5\x83\x95\xf0\x97\xbf\xa3\xe7\x87\x93\xf0\x96\xa6\x9e\xeb\xa9\x83\xe7\x88\x8a\xe6\x88\x8f\xe7\x9d\x8d\xea\x85\xa0\xef\xac\x85"


Actual results:
[ERROR 2018-06-26T03:45:55 API] 422 Unprocessable Entity
[ERROR 2018-06-26T03:45:55 Exception] Failed to create a compute 9zZ6tf (Libvirt) instance jhutar7545.xl2ppkfyft: undefined method `name' for nil:NilClass
 
Could not create the host:
  Failed to create a compute 9zZ6tf (Libvirt) instance jhutar7545.xl2ppkfyft: undefined method `name' for nil:NilClass


Expected results:
Should work

Comment 5 Ondřej Pražák 2018-07-02 11:31:23 UTC 
I was able to get the error by stopping libvirt. When the compute resource is available/reachable, the host is created. Nevertheless, this is a bug as we should show a better error message.
Comment 6 Ondřej Pražák 2018-07-02 11:44:31 UTC 
Created redmine issue http://projects.theforeman.org/issues/24125 from this bug
Comment 7 Satellite Program 2018-07-02 12:20:15 UTC 
Upstream bug assigned to oprazak
Comment 8 Satellite Program 2018-07-10 14:20:02 UTC 
Moving this bug to POST for triage into Satellite 6 since the upstream issue http://projects.theforeman.org/issues/24125 has been resolved.
Comment 9 Stephen Benjamin 2018-07-17 17:55:25 UTC 
Verified:
  satellite-6.4.0-10.beta.el7sat.noarch
  foreman-1.18.0.1-1.el7sat.noarch

I verified this bug by adding a libvirt compute resource to my Satellite instance and then trying to provision a host with libvirtd shutoff.  Instead of the error mentioned in comment #0, Satellite correctly informs me of the true error:

[root@hp-moonshot-01-c09 ~]# hammer -u admin -p changeme host create --architecture-id="1" --compute-resource-id="1" --domain-id="2" --ip="192.168.121.19" --location-id="2" --mac="94:e3:d9:06:72:48" --medium-id="1" --name="stbenjam$RANDOM" --operatingsystem-id="2" --organization-id="1" --partition-table-id="94" --puppet-proxy-id="1" --root-password="\xea\xae\x8f\xf0\x98\x87\x8a\xe9\xb5\xa8\xd0\x9e\xec\x8b\xa4\xe6\xa9\x88\xe0\xae\x88\xe1\x8b\xb8\xe5\x83\x95\xf0\x97\xbf\xa3\xe7\x87\x93\xf0\x96\xa6\x9e\xeb\xa9\x83\xe7\x88\x8a\xe6\x88\x8f\xe7\x9d\x8d\xea\x85\xa0\xef\xac\x85" --environment-id 1


Could not create the host:
  ERF42-5864 [Foreman::Exception]: Unable to connect to libvirt due to: Error making a connection to libvirt URI qemu+ssh://stephen.usersys.redhat.com/system:
  Call to virConnectOpen failed: Cannot recv data: Host key verification failed.: Connection reset by peer. Please make sure your libvirt compute resource is reachable and that you have appropriate access permissions.
