Doc Text:	.Users can now specify user accounts in the RHEL for Edge Installer blueprint Previously, performing an update on your blueprint without a user account defined in the RHEL for Edge Commit for the upgrade, such as adding a rpm package, would cause users to be locked out of their system, after the upgrade was applied. It caused users to have redefine user accounts when upgrading an existing system. This issue has been fixed to allow users to specify user accounts in the RHEL for Edge Installer blueprint, that creates a user on the system at installation time, rather than having the user as part of the `ostree` commit.

Description Yi He 2021-04-21 08:21:51 UTC

Description of problem:
Create a rhel-edge-container image with bp that a user is added, then install rhel for edge. Can use that user to login system. Then make an upgrade bp, add additional RPMs, but do not define any user, create an upgrade image. 
Upgrade rhel for edge, after upgrade, cannot login with that user.


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
RHEL 8.4

How reproducible:
Everytime

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Create blueprint like this, define a user named admin.
name = "container"
description = "A base rhel-edge container image"
version = "0.0.1"
modules = []
groups = []

[[packages]]
name = "python36"
version = "*"

[customizations]
[customizations.kernel]
name = "kernel-rt"
append = ""

[[customizations.user]]
name = "admin"
description = "Administrator account"
password = "$6$GRmb7S0p8vsYmXzH$o0E020S.9JQGaHkszoog4ha4AQVs3sk8q0DvLjSMxoxHBKnB2FBXGQ/OkwZQfW/76ktHd0NX5nls2LPxPuUdl."
key = "ssh-rsa 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 ostree-image-test"
home = "/home/admin/"
groups = ["wheel"]

2. Use this blueprint to build image, "composer-cli compose start-ostree container rhel-edge-container --ref rhel/8/x86_64/edge", after build finished, download image and run container, container serves ostree image content at http://192.168.100.1/repo/.


3. Create a Kickstart file, includes the ostree url http://192.168.100.1/repo/.

4. Use kickstart file to install RHEL for Edge, after installation, I can login as user admin.

5. Create a blueprint for upgrade like this, additional pkg added, but no user defined.
name = "upgrade-container"
description = "An upgrade rhel-edge container image"
version = "0.0.2"
modules = []
groups = []

[[packages]]
name = "python36"
version = "*"

[[packages]]
name = "expect"
version = "*"

[customizations]
[customizations.kernel]
name = "kernel-rt"
append = ""

6. Use this blueprint to build a rhel-edge-container image, "composer-cli compose start-ostree upgrade-container rhel-edge-container --url http://192.168.100.1/repo/ --ref rhel/8/x86_64/edge", after build finished, download image and run container.

7. Upgrade rhel for edge image, upgrade finished successfully. After reboot, I cannot login with user admin, error message is 'Login incorrect.'

vm login: admin
Password: 
Login incorrect



Actual results:
Cannot login as user admin after upgrade


Expected results:
Can login as user admin after upgrade

That is sadly expected behaviour and why I think we should discourage people from putting users into blueprints.
