RHEL Engineering is moving the tracking of its product development work on RHEL 6 through RHEL 9 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 "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira and file new tickets here. Individual Bugzilla bugs in the statuses "NEW", "ASSIGNED", and "POST" are being migrated throughout September 2023. Bugs of Red Hat partners with an assigned Engineering Partner Manager (EPM) are migrated in late September as per pre-agreed dates. Bugs against components "kernel", "kernel-rt", and "kpatch" are only migrated if still in "NEW" or "ASSIGNED". 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 "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira (issue links are of type "https://issues.redhat.com/browse/RHEL-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 of problem:
Using --reserved-space to specify an amount of space to leave unused in a volume group will cause rhvh 4.4 installation to fail. See errors:

Partitioning in ks file:

clearpart --all
bootloader --location=mbr
reqpart --add-boot
part pv.01 --size=1 --grow
volgroup rhvh pv.01 --reserved-space=20480
logvol swap --fstype=swap --name=swap --vgname=rhvh --recommended
logvol none --name=pool --vgname=rhvh --thinpool --size=1 --grow

logvol /var --fstype=ext4 --name=var --vgname=rhvh --thin --poolname=pool --size=20000


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
RHVH-UNSIGNED-ISO-4.4-RHEL-8-20200318.0-RHVH-x86_64-dvd1.iso

How reproducible:
100%

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Prepare a ks file containing the above partitioning cmds
2. Install RHVH 4.4 using the ks file

Actual results:
1. Installation failed with the above error

Expected results:
1. Installation should succeed.
2. The free space of vg is the desired value.

Additional info:
Comment 1 Michal Skrivanek 2020-03-24 08:20:15 UTC 
doesn't look like anything in RHVH, looks like anaconda bug. can you try that kickstart with regular RHEL?
Comment 2 Jiri Konecny 2020-03-24 09:30:33 UTC 
This error is raised from our storage library. Not sure if this is caused by a bad configuration from the Anaconda side but we should probably get a reasonable exception so or so.
