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 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.
