Sometimes an error occurs when deleting a host in Satellite 6 from CloudFroms due to a timeout

Solution Verified - Updated -

Issue

  • During the retirement flow of a Linux server an API call is sent from Cloudforms towards Satellit6 to destroy the Linux server.

    DELETE => https://satellite.example.com/api/v2/hosts/<some_host_to_delete.explample.com>
    
  • But It looks like sometimes it takes so long to get a response, that a new destroy request is sent tot the Satellite6.

  • This call will return an error because of a conflicting task (the previous destroy request).
  • Question is why the destroy call takes so long (more then a minute)?

Environment

  • Red Hat Satellite 6.2
  • Red Hat CloudForms 4
