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.

I am creating Azure VMs using the API (well, Ansible, but that doesn't matter).

I submit the following Interfaces config:

<pre>
          interfaces_attributes:
            - type: "interface"
              compute_attributes:
                network: default #not foreman-vnet-default
                public_ip: Dynamic
                private_ip: false

</pre>

Which yields the following error:

<pre>
MsRestAzure::AzureOperationError: PrivateIPAddressMissing: Private IP address is required when privateIPAllocationMethod is Static in IP configuration /subscriptions/UUID/resourceGroups/foreman/providers/Microsoft.Network/networkInterfaces/whoa-nic0/ipConfigurations/whoa-nic0.
</pre>

This is because the code at https://github.com/theforeman/foreman_azure_rm/blob/48c22cb6f4e3845d2faf61be26d3f0eea58b6b70/app/models/concerns/foreman_azure_rm/vm_extensions/managed_vm.rb#L126 reads:

<pre>
private_ip = (attrs[:private_ip] == 'false') ? false : true
</pre>

Which makes private_ip only False if the API parameter was a *string* with the value "false".

Created from redmine issue https://projects.theforeman.org/issues/32500

Upstream bug assigned to egolov

Verified!

Steps:
1. Create an Azure RM Compute Resource.
2. Provision the host on Azure CR but by setting private_ip to False(Boolean, not String) in interface attributes of host.

Behaviour:
The host provisioned is successful even though the private_ip is set to boolean value.

Verified in Satellite 6.10 Snap 7.
