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 Serge Savard 2019-02-07 15:26:23 UTC 
Description of problem:
Creating a vmware host with the compute-attributes scsi_controller_type is not creating the VM with the provided SCSI controller type


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

vSphere 6.5
hammer (0.13.1.1)


How reproducible:

All the time

Steps to reproduce :

Create a host and specify the scsi_controller_type compute-attributes

      hammer host create --name "test.local" \
      --organization "ORG" \
      --location "location" \
      --compute-resource host.vmware.local \
      --compute-attributes="cpus=2,corespersocket=1,memory_mb=2048,cluster=PRODUCTION,path=TO_CLASS,start=1,guest_id=rhel7_64Guest,scsi_controller_type=ParaVirtualSCSIController,hardware_version=vmx-10" \
      --provision-method build \
      --build true \
      --enabled true \
      --managed true \
      --interface "managed=true,primary=true,provision=true,compute_type=VirtualVmxnet3,compute_network=VLAN100" \
      --hostgroup SOME_HOST_GROUP \
      --ip 10.0.0.10 \
      --volume="size_gb=20G,datastore=PROD,name=myharddisk,thin=true"



Actual results:

The VM is created with the "VirtualLsiLogicController" scsi controller

Expected results:

The VM is created with the "ParaVirtualSCSIController" scsi controller


Additional info:

I have changed the following lines 

    def scsi_controller_default_type
      #"VirtualLsiLogicController"
      "ParaVirtualSCSIController"
    end

in /usr/share/foreman/app/models/compute_resources/foreman/model/vmware.rb

to at least default to ParaVirtualSCSIController.
Comment 3 Chris Roberts 2019-02-08 16:31:37 UTC 
Hi,

This was fixed in this commit:

https://github.com/theforeman/hammer-cli-foreman/commit/a1b20c60c528b5b0ff366ef07c9bdcb2687ae2f8

It should be available in:

Hammer-cli-foreman 0.16.0

I will set it to 6.5 and see if it gets accept during the next triage meeting.

This works when done from UI, but from CLI even when you pass the ParaVirtualSCSIController the default is picked 

hammer host create --compute-attributes="cpus=2,corespersocket=2,memory_mb=4028,cluster=Satellite_Engineering,path=/Datacenters/RH_Engineering/vm/QE,guest_id=rhel7_64Guest,scsi_controller_type=ParaVirtualSCSIController,hardware_version=Default,start=1" --compute-resource-id="11" --hostgroup="rXCzquDCpau" --interface="compute_network=network-5114,compute_type=VirtualVmxnet3" --location="KEeDjXMSWD" --name="bugverify" --organization="jhmJNoOgTP" --provision-method="build" --pxe-loader="PXELinux BIOS" --root-password="lZaorBeUZv" --volume="name=Hard disk,size_gb=10,thin=true,eager_zero=false,datastore=Local-Ironforge"
Host created.


In VMware it's the default value 
SCSI controller 0 LSI Logic Parallel
