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 Dylan Gross 2018-08-31 00:42:15 UTC 
1. Proposed title of this feature request

   [RFE] Provide ability for UI to reflect non-RedHat Errata types

3. What is the nature and description of the request?

   Errata synced from 3rd party repos can contain metadata that does not match up with the 3 main Red Hat errata types reflected in the UI:  Security, Bugfix, Enhancement.

   When it does not match up, the packages in the errata are reflected as applicable updates, but there is no indication of the counts of outstanding errata to be applied to a Content Host

4. Why does the customer need this? (List the business requirements here)

   To be able to accurately view a Content Host and see what types, and how many, errata are outstanding to the Content Host.

5. How would the customer like to achieve this? (List the functional requirements here)

   This could probably be achieved a number of ways.   One suggestion would be to map some of the common ones to the existing Red Hat Errata types.

6. For each functional requirement listed, specify how Red Hat and the customer can test to confirm the requirement is successfully implemented.

   Errata of non-RedHat types will show as counts in the Installable Errata views on the Content Host details page and Content Hosts' listing.

7. Is there already an existing RFE upstream or in Red Hat Bugzilla?

   No.

8. Does the customer have any specific timeline dependencies and which release would they like to target (i.e. RHEL5, RHEL6)?

   No

9. Is the sales team involved in this request and do they have any additional input?

   No

10. List any affected packages or components.

11. Would the customer be able to assist in testing this functionality if implemented?

   Yes

Customer is also asking that they have the ability to filter on these errata types as well.

Cheers,
Karl
Comment 7 Pavel Moravec 2019-12-16 13:36:12 UTC 
This also affects ability to filter out errata based on time only (i.e. "exclude errata newer than <date>"). The reason is, this filter already contains the check for errata type, inherently.

Upon review of our valid but aging backlog the Satellite Team has concluded that this Bugzilla does not meet the criteria for a resolution in the near term, and are planning to close in one month's time. If you have any concerns about this, please contact your Red Hat Account team.  Thank you.
Comment 13 Mike McCune 2021-04-13 17:40:05 UTC 
Thank you for your interest in Satellite 6. We have evaluated this request, and while we recognize that it is a valid request, we do not expect this to be implemented in the product in the foreseeable future. This is due to other priorities for the product, and not a reflection on the request itself. We are therefore closing this out as WONTFIX. If you have any concerns about this, please do not reopen. Instead, feel free to contact your Red Hat Account Team. Thank you.
Comment 15 Charles Slivkoff 2021-08-30 15:11:58 UTC 
As we have recently deployed a sw release management cycle utilizing content views, the fact that the EPEL repository publishes errata lead us to believe that the errata could be used as filters for the content views.

I could find no way to workaround this limitation while trying to filter on dates.  The 3 options listed, "security", "bugfix", and "enhancement", do not cover all content. There is no way to request "no type filter" either. One of these must be selected.

In addition, the www.mysatellite.com/errata search UI provides `type` and FIVE options, adding "newpackage" and "unspecified". 

At minimum, I would like to have the restriction of "type" removed from the content view filter definition.  That is, allow all THREE checkboxes to be unselected, or provide a FOURTH as "any".
