Description

Hello, we have a feature in Satellite 6.8 to support POWER PC. I can see that RHEL8 PPC64LE KS is synced properly however kickstart (BOOTP/PXE) files are missing: /content/beta/rhel8/8/ppc64le/baseos/kickstart/images is empty as well as /content/beta/rhel8/8/ppc64le/baseos/kickstart/images/ppc/ppc64.

For the record this is the treeinfo file and I can clearly see those files should exist, however they are not synced for some reason.

Notes from the BZ:

Grant Gainey 2020-09-01 17:23:16 UTC

I am working with Centos8 kickstart currently, and here's what I see on Pulp2, 2-master for pulp and pulp_rpm:

  #!/bin/bash -v                                                                               
  BASE='centos8-baseos-ks'                                                                     
  REMOTE1='http://centos.mirror.rafal.ca/8.2.2004/BaseOS/ppc64le/kickstart/'                   
  pulp-admin rpm repo create --serve-http=true --repo-id=$BASE --relative-url=$BASE --feed=$REMOTE1 --download-policy immediate

If I look at the published trees I see the kickstart files where I would expect them:

And when I try to access them, they get delivered:

I am going to reset and retry with a RHEL8 kickstart repo, assuming I can find/gain access to such a thing - but so far, this looks ok from Pulp2's side.

@lzap, @rplevka, am I missing something here?

Grant Gainey 2020-09-01 19:18:47 UTC

Pulp2 directory structure looks fine (i.e., "matches what I expect from looking at the treeinfo file") after synching RHEL8-baseos-kickstart repo from https://cdn.redhat.com/content/dist/rhel8/8.2/ppc64le/baseos/kickstart/ as well:

  #!/bin/bash -v

Unless someone can show that Pulp is putting content in the wrong place, I'm going to say that whatever the problem is here, it isn't a Pulp2 problem.

Thanks, before we close it here, I am going to ask Roman Plevka to provide debugging details of Pulp2 from his Satellite 6 instance. Can you give him some debug commands to run in order to see all parameters are set correctly in Pulp2? Also he should be able to provide you access to the reproducer server, also an option.

I'm still waiting on a NEEDINFO in the associated BZ for the actual URL being used. You can find the URLs used for repos from mongo using:

pmongo pulp-database

db.repo_importers.find().map(function(item){ return item.config.feed; })

Responded in the BZ - the problem is that the kickstart-profile is generating the wrong URLs for PPC64LE. That's a problem with the associated theforeman PR, not with Pulp2.

Apologies this turned out to be an issue in Foreman core, Katello plugin actually overrides media provider so the patch in Foreman 2.0 was not working correctly.
