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:
The checkbox (or checkmark) next to admin password while Configuring Satellite Server to Synchronize Content over a Network should be enhanced/removed.
Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): Satellite 6.12
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Navigate to Satellite WebUI -> Content -> Subscriptions -> Manage Manifest -> CDN Configuration -> Network Sync.
2. Fill all the Required Details like URL, Username, Password, etc.
Actual results:
1) The 'Update' button at the bottom is greyed out until the checkbox (or checkmark) next to 'Password' field is clicked.
2) Also the checkbox (or checkmark) or Update button at the bottom does not validate if the entered password is correct or not.
Expected results:
1) It should not be required for a user to click the checkbox (or checkmark) next to 'Password' field. As it is just an additional click which customer has to make.
2) Clicking on Update button the bottom should validate if the entered password is correct and should not allow to proceed further if the password is incorrect.
> 1) It should not be required for a user to click the checkbox (or checkmark) next to 'Password' field. As it is just an additional click which customer has to make.
IIRC this checkbox determines whether we send a password at all. This was needed to differentiate sending a password that is an empty string.
> 2) Clicking on Update button the bottom should validate if the entered password is correct and should not allow to proceed further if the password is incorrect.
Since the password validation occurs on the upstream Satellite and not the one which the user is currently in front of, there wasn't really an easy way to pre-validate the password.
Upon review of our valid but aging backlog the Satellite Team has concluded that this Bugzilla does not meet the criteria for a resolution in the near term, and are planning to close in a month. This message may be a repeat of a previous update and the bug is again being considered to be closed. If you have any concerns about this, please contact your Red Hat Account team. Thank you.
Thank you for your interest in Red Hat Satellite. We have evaluated this request, and while we recognize that it is a valid request, we do not expect this to be implemented in the product in the foreseeable future. This is due to other priorities for the product, and not a reflection on the request itself. We are therefore closing this out as WONTFIX. If you have any concerns about this feel free to contact your Red Hat Account Team. Thank you.
