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 Mihir Lele 2019-02-15 10:47:11 UTC
Description of problem:

Discovery kexec is not working after upgrading Satellite to 6.4 with Nutanix Acropolis Hypervisors. 


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):  6.4


How reproducible:  Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Discover a host using the latest foreman-discovery image
2. Enable ssh on the host and run "journatl -f" on the host so that we can get the logs related to kexec
3. Go to "discovered hosts", fill up the form and hit submit

Actual results:

kexec does not get triggered properly and hence the system reboots.

Expected results:

kexec should get triggered and put the system into build mode.

Additional info:


Host logs shows that kexec gets initiated, but shows no errors:

Comment 8 Bryan Kearney 2019-02-21 18:11:36 UTC
Closing this as NOTABUG. Nutanix is not a supported hypervisor.

Comment 9 Lukas Zapletal 2019-02-25 14:42:40 UTC
Try to add "nokaslr" kernel command line option for booting discovery and also into Red Hat Kexec template, this could help.
