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 Charles Rose (Dell) 2020-09-01 21:15:07 UTC 
Description of problem:
On a Dell PowerEdge R740, When the USB NIC redfish interface on iDRAC is enabled, redfish-finder fails with the error shown below.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
redfish-finder-0.3-4.el8.noarch

How reproducible:
Always when "Host IP Assignment Type" in dmi type 42 is DHCP.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Install redfish-finder
2. Start redfish-finder service
3. systemd unit start fails

Actual results:
redfish-finder: Getting dmidecode info
redfish-finder: Unexpected error while parsing HostConfig!
redfish-finder: Building NetworkManager connection info
redfish-finder: Obtaining OS config info
redfish-finder: Converting SMBIOS Host Config to NetworkManager Connection info
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/bin/redfish-finder", line 535, in <module>
    main()
  File "/usr/bin/redfish-finder", line 523, in main
    if smbios_info.hostconfig.generate_nm_config(smbios_info.device, conn) == False:
  File "/usr/bin/redfish-finder", line 174, in generate_nm_config
    for i in range(len(self.assigntype)):
AttributeError: 'HostConfig' object has no attribute 'assigntype'

Expected results:
redfish-finder starts without error and pinging 'redfish-localhost' should succeed.
