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 wclark 2019-05-20 15:36:50 UTC
PXE provisioning will fail if no interface has an associated Subnet with a TFTP Capsule.

However when creating a new host, Hosts --> Create Host --> Interfaces --> Edit, there are several helpful information bubbles for many fields, but no information related to scenarios where a subnet with a TFTP Capsule must be associated with the interface.

Adding such information will make it more clear to customers that while a new Host can be created without an associated subnet, building the Host via PXE will fail.

Comment 3 wclark 2019-05-20 15:42:12 UTC
It appears subnet field was made optional here: https://projects.theforeman.org/issues/15133

Inline help was improved here for some other fields: https://projects.theforeman.org/issues/19646

However there is no inline help for the Subnet fields specifically
