Description Sneha Arya 2023-02-06 12:21:18 UTC
Description of problem:
 
While generating the "Host - compare content hosts packages" report template, It is required to put Host 1* and Host 2* names to compare the packages. However if mistakenly mention the same hostname in both the Host1* and Host2* fields, it allows submitting the request but the error is misleading i.e
 
Error -
At least one of the hosts couldn't be found
 
Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
Satellite 6.13
 
How reproducible:
Always
 
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Login to the Satellite 6.13 WebUI
2. Register a client with the satellite e.g "client.example.com"
3. Generate a "Host - compare content hosts packages" report template as follows:
 
Monitor > Report Templates > "Host - compare content hosts packages" > Click on Generate
 
a) Now fill up the field Generate at (Select the date/time)
b) Choose Output format (CVS)
c) Put the Host1* and Host2* value same as "client.example.com"
 
Actual results:
 
Error -
At least one of the hosts couldn't be found
 
Expected results:
 
It should notify or validate the hostname before hitting on submit it. Else can change the misleading error that the host1 and host2 names are the same.

Moving this bug to POST for triage into Satellite since the upstream issue https://projects.theforeman.org/issues/36244 has been resolved.
