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 Kenny Tordeurs 2020-11-06 11:19:54 UTC 
Description of problem:
Update the foreman-discovery-image with newer kernel to avoid issues like:
~~~
RHEL installations on some physical systems. Some machines have a new network card (HPE Synergy 480 blades with 4820c Converged Network Adapter) and it requires a kernel version equivalent of RHEL 7.7 or higher
~~~

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
Satellite 6.8
foreman-discovery-image-3.6.7-1.iso

How reproducible:
100%

Steps to Reproduce:
1. # yum install foreman-discovery-image
2. # mnt -o loop /usr/share/foreman-discovery-image/foreman-discovery-image-3.6.7-1.iso /mnt
3. # file /mnt/isolinux/vmlinuz0 

Actual results:
~~~
/mnt/isolinux/vmlinuz0: Linux kernel x86 boot executable bzImage, version 3.10.0-957.el7.x86_64 (mockbuild.eng.bos.redhat.c, RO-rootFS, swap_dev 0x6, Normal VGA
~~~

Kernel dates from:
~~~
2018-10-04 Bruno E. O. Meneguele <bmeneg> [3.10.0-957.el7]
~~~
https://access.redhat.com/downloads/content/kernel/3.10.0-957.el7/x86_64/fd431d51/package-changelog


Expected results:
Newer kernel

Comment 2 Lukas Zapletal 2020-11-06 12:19:23 UTC 
Yes, I confirm we had chat about this. Please waive this into the next errata, we need to update FDI. For some reason, we built it against old RHEL version.
Comment 4 Lukas Zapletal 2021-02-09 11:22:32 UTC 
Fixed in 3.7.2 in 6.9 drop, ready for QA.
