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:
There are a couple of improvements that I think would make this page a lot easier to understand:
0) Remove the "Products" headline, it doesn't add any value. Maybe "Last Sync" instead?
1) Change 'Progress' column header to 'Result'. (Progress implies there's a sync in progress right now).
blank, [Progress bar], "Complete", "Error". We should never made statements about whether the product is currently in sync, we can't possibly know until we try to sync it. 'Not synced' needs to go away.
2) Change 'Finish Time' column to 'Duration', and show the amount of time the last sync took (if never synced, blank). If possible still show the duration even though it ended in an error, could help with troubleshooting.
3) Is the 'Est Size' column really an estimate? Looks like the actual size to me. If so, change to 'Size'.

Additional info:
Problem still remains that sync info disappears after an hour or so, but this is a pulp problem. Will try to address that separately.
Verified, katello-0.1.95-1.git.11.27446a9.el6.noarch
Would it make more sense if Duration was blank (or in progress?) for running sync jobs? I found it a bit confusing to see the duration of my previous sync displaying in the active sync job...
