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).

Description Meng Liang 2012-10-24 07:00:54 UTC
Description of problem:
On the Kernel Dump page, select SSH with a valid SSH location.
Giving a wrong password/Not providing password under the command line and enter 'Ctrl+c' and 'exit', user will be lead to the login page.
Login fail, though correct password was provided.
Reboot the system and login, on the Kdump page, it shows as SSH configured successfully with the SSH location info.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
rhev-hypervisor6-6.4-20121015.1.el6

How reproducible:

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Install rhevh and set network
2. On the Kernel Dump page, select SSH with a valid SSH location.

Actual results:
User was lead to the login page.
Login failed, though correct password was provided.
Rebooted the system and login, on the Kdump page, it shown as SSH has been configured successfully with the SSH location info.

Expected results:
Provide a better way to lead user back to the configuration page
SSH should not be set successfully until correct password is provided

Additional info:
No such issue in rhevh-6.3-20121023.0.el6_3, so it is a regression bug.
