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 of problem:
In Satellite up to 6.8, when you synced the RHEL product, it would create the according OS with the title "RedHat 8.1" (or whatever the version is)
Since Satellite 6.9, syncing the same repository results in an OS with the title "RedHat-8.1.0" which breaks essentially any automated deployment workflow that still expects "RedHat 8.1".
This was introduced in https://projects.theforeman.org/issues/30571 / https://github.com/Katello/katello/pull/8936 to fix some validation bug
In my environment, it was sufficient to unset the "description" attribute of the OS, to get the "old" behavior back.
Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
Satellite 6.9.1
How reproducible:
100%
Steps to Reproduce:
1. sync RH products with kickstarts
Actual results:
See OS with the title "RedHat-8.1.0"
Expected results:
See OS with the title "RedHat 8.1"
Additional info:
One thing that I didn't point out in the original comment: I think calling that OS 8.1.0 is wrong, as it really is 8.1 and we don't really version .z releases in RHEL.
(the 8.1.0 was imported from an exported CV, so it might have different metadata than what's on CDN)
