RHEL Engineering is moving the tracking of its product development work on RHEL 6 through RHEL 9 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 "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira and file new tickets here. Individual Bugzilla bugs in the statuses "NEW", "ASSIGNED", and "POST" are being migrated throughout September 2023. Bugs of Red Hat partners with an assigned Engineering Partner Manager (EPM) are migrated in late September as per pre-agreed dates. Bugs against components "kernel", "kernel-rt", and "kpatch" are only migrated if still in "NEW" or "ASSIGNED". 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 "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira (issue links are of type "https://issues.redhat.com/browse/RHEL-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.

Previously, some of the system roles such as `timesync`, `ssh`, and `sshd` showed templating errors when converting certain parameter values such as an integer or a floating point, to a string. With this update, the roles convert the values to a string and no longer show templating errors.	Story Points:	---

Description Rich Megginson 2022-09-23 15:39:14 UTC

Using int or float values in the inventory or vars like 'port: 3009' or 'timesync_step_threshold: 0.9' will give templating type errors in the sshd and timesync roles

Comment 13 Rich Megginson 2023-05-10 15:27:16 UTC

The problem and fix had nothing to do with the `selinux` role, but instead the `timesync`, `ssh`, and `sshd` roles.
