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:
Job template "change content source" fails to change the content source



Steps to Reproduce:
1. Register a RHEL8 client VM to satellite
2. Edit it and add correct content source manually. [It would be blank on registration]
3. Now use job template "change content source" to change the content source.

The job completes successfully but the actual change doesnt happen. Below is the execution log:

Comment 1 Brad Buckingham 2023-02-06 14:15:51 UTC 
Is this a regression from 6.12?  Thanks!
Comment 4 Leos Stejskal 2023-03-17 08:12:56 UTC 
Hi,
can I get more info about the issue?
- Satellite & Katello version
- Logs from capsule and satellite

Jeremy:
change_content_source is in https://github.com/Katello/katello/blob/master/app/lib/katello/concerns/base_template_scope_extensions.rb#L301
Comment 8 Marek Hulan 2023-06-05 14:58:33 UTC 
Isn't the reproducer missing a step? I think the job should be triggered from the change content source wizard, not ran directly. The job doesn't change anything in the DB, it only performs what needs to be performed on the host. The wizard modifies the Satellite DB. If that's the case, that wouldn't be a bug right? Perhaps we could add a description to the template to explain its purpose.
Comment 9 Jeremy Lenz 2023-06-22 13:28:01 UTC 
I'd be in favor of renaming the job template to something more descriptive - something like "Configure host for new content source."

Moving this bug to POST for triage into Satellite since the upstream issue https://projects.theforeman.org/issues/36597 has been resolved.
Comment 17 Sam Bible 2023-08-10 16:42:47 UTC 
Verified on: 6.14 - 11

Steps to verify:
1. Navigate to Hosts -> Job Templates
2. Select Katello as the job category

Expected Results:
There is no job template named 'Change Content Source' and there is one named 'Configure Host for new content source'; the description of the template has been updated
The job executes successfully.

Actual Results:
There is no job template named 'Change Content Source' and there is one named 'Configure Host for new content source'; the description of the template has been updated
The job executes successfully.
