Note: This bug is displayed in read-only format because
the product is no longer active in Red Hat Bugzilla.
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.
1. Proposed title of this feature request
Macro to include System Installation Date in Reporting
2. What are the nature and description of the request?
The customer would like reporting to include system installation date.
3. Why do you need this? (List the business requirements here)
Compliance reporting mandated by management and global security
4. How would you like to achieve this? (List the functional requirements here)
We can achieve this by opening file base.rb and add method host_created_at at line 147
~~~
#vi /usr/share/foreman/lib/foreman/renderer/scope/macros/base.rb
143 def host_cores(cores)
144 host&.cores
145 end
146
147 def host_created_at(host)
148 host&.created_at
149 end
150
151 def host_virtual(host)
152 host&.virtual
153 end
~~~
Restart httpd #systemctl restart httpd
You can use this macro in report like this
'Created At': host_created_at(host)
5. For each functional requirement listed, specify how Red Hat and your organization can test to confirm the requirement is successfully implemented.
We would generate a new copy of the report.
6. Is there already an existing RFE upstream or in Red Hat Bugzilla?
No
7. Do you have any specific timeline dependencies and which release would they like to target (i.e. RHEL8.3, Sat7)?
Probably too late to get this into 6.8 as GA is only weeks away, but sooner than later?
8. List any affected packages or components.
Satellite 6.7 Report Templates
9. Would you be able to assist in testing this functionality if implemented?
Yes, but not having a "non-prod" satellite instance would make it a bit difficult to test.
