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.

Description Masahiro Matsuya 2023-03-01 03:49:39 UTC 
Description of problem:

The --onpart option is required for --noformat option in the part command.
If the --onpart option is missing, the installation fails with the following error.

    part --noformat must also use the --onpart option.

The installer generates /root/anaconda-ks.cfg including part commands with --noformat and without --onpart option.

The root cause is that "data.on_part" is used in the following code, since it doesn't exist in the definition of pykickstart side. It should be data.onPart.

./usr/lib/python3.9/site-packages/blivet/devices/partition.py

    def populate_ksdata(self, data):
        super(PartitionDevice, self).populate_ksdata(data)
        data.resize = (self.exists and self.target_size and
                       self.target_size != self.current_size)
        if not self.exists:
            ... snip ...
        else:
            data.on_part = self.name                     # by-id


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
Red Hat Enterprise Linux 9.1

How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Install RHEL 9.1 with 1 disk using the following kickstart commands.

ignoredisk --only-use=vda
clearpart --all --initlabel
part /boot --fstype="xfs" --ondisk=vda --size=1024 --label=boot
part pv.1300 --fstype="lvmpv" --ondisk=vda --size=10000
volgroup rootvg --pesize=4096 pv.1300
logvol / --fstype="xfs" --size=6000 --label="rootlv" --name=rootlv --vgname=rootvg
logvol swap --fstype="swap" --size=1024 --name=swaplv --vgname=rootvg
logvol /opt --fstype="xfs" --size=200 --label="optlv" --name=optlv --vgname=rootvg

2. Install RHEL9.1 with the same disk manually with GUI.

- custom partition
  / reformat
  /boot reformat
  /opt (no format) 
- minimal install

3. Check /root/anaconda-ks.cfg after the second installation.

Actual results:

anaconda-ks.cfg includes the part commands with --noformat and without --onpart option as below.

 part pv.24 --fstype="lvmpv" --noformat

And, RHEL9.1 installation with the same disk using anaconda-ks.cfg failed with the following error.

   part --noformat must also use the --onpart option.

Expected results:

--onpart is added into the part command with --noformat option.

Additional info:

I will make PR on upstream for this bug.
