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 Paul Dudley 2020-03-06 00:03:58 UTC 
Description of problem:
After registering a host with the bootstrap.py script a custom operating system is not set after specifying a hostgroup that includes the custom OS and the -O parameter (to specify operating system) once more. The custom OS is also not set when using just the hostgroup.


How reproducible:
Satellite 6.6 100% reproducible on test satellite/client

Steps to Reproduce:
1. create custom OS, assign proper parameters and arch
2. assign OS to hostgroup
3. use bootstrap.py to register the host

Actual results:
The custom OS is not assigned in the Satellite webui to the host

Expected results:
The custom OS should be assigned

Additional Info:
Looking at logs we can see the right parameter being passed:
---
Parameters: {"host"=>{"operatingsystem_id"=>9,
---

But still the POST is:
---
2020-02-28T17:25:28 [I|aud|6a929fae] Host::Base (904) update event on operatingsystem_id 9, 3
---

In the above, OS 9 is the custom OS and 3 is the true OS of the system. 3 would be the correct OS to assign if we were not passing custom parameters.

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 a month. This message may be a repeat of a previous update and the bug is again being considered to be closed. If you have any concerns about this, please contact your Red Hat Account team. Thank you.
Comment 7 Mike McCune 2022-03-18 19:44:22 UTC 
Thank you for your interest in Red Hat Satellite. 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 feel free to contact your Red Hat Account Team. Thank you.
