[Satellite6] Updated root password value for a hostgroup does not take effect on future builds

Solution Verified - Updated -

Issue

  • If we update the root password in the Host group and cancel the build either through Hammer using below command:
 # hammer host update --id <host-id> --build true

or Satellite WebUI then the newly provisioned system takes the old password NOT the new one.
