Description of problem: After changing the Content-View the Satellite doesn't show the errata information properly Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): Satellite 6.10.4 How reproducible: Change the Content-View or Lifecycle-environment via WebUI doesn't work as expected to update the errata information Steps to Reproduce: 1. Satellite WebUI -> Hosts -> Content Hosts -> server 2. Change the Content-View to another one Actual results: The errata information is the same but there are new errata available. Expected results: The Satellite updates this information or trigger some task for that Additional info:
It's true that you need to run 'subscription-manager repos' or some other action that triggers a profile upload, before the host's errata and package information will be updated. I'm not yet sure where the fix is, but this would be a valid RFE.
A possible fix in Katello would be When changing a host's CV/LCE: 1. Display a banner informing the user that changes to errata applicability and installed packages won't be reflected until the next checkin or package action. 2. Offer the user the option to send the host a REX job that initiates a package profile upload, so that you won't have to wait for the above.
