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.

Fixed In Version:	rhel-system-roles-1.22.0-0.16.el8	Doc Type:	Enhancement
Doc Text:	.The `firewall` RHEL System Role has an option to disable conflicting services, and it no longer fails if `firewalld` is masked Previously, the `firewall` System Role failed when the `firewalld` service was masked on the role run or in the presence of conflicting services. This update brings two notable enhancements: The `linux-system-roles.firewall` role always attempts to install, unmask, and enable the `firewalld` service on role run. You can now add a new variable `firewall_disable_conflicting_services` to your playbook to disable known conflicting services, for example, `iptables.service`, `nftables.service`, and `ufw.service`. The `firewall_disable_conflicting_services` variable is set to `false` by default. To disable conflicting services, set the variable to `true`.	Story Points:	---

Description Rich Megginson 2023-07-13 19:11:54 UTC

+++ This bug was initially created as a clone of Bug #2222761 +++

When using the firewall role only the firewalld service, not nftables, should be running to avoid any conflicts. While it's trivial to disable/mask nftables in a separate task it would be nice to have the role to do the same and thus avoid any risk for issues.  See https://github.com/linux-system-roles/firewall/issues/136 and https://github.com/linux-system-roles/firewall/pull/154
