VM gets deleted when unregistering the system from Red Hat Satellite 6.
Issue
- Unregistering a system from Satellite causes the VM to be destroyed from the compute resource because of how the settings are configured.
1) First setting
Administer -> Settings -> Content
Delete Host upon unregister -> yes (Default: no)
2) Second setting
Administer -> Settings -> Provisioning
Destroy associated VM on host delete -> yes (Default: yes)
3) VM is associated to a compute resource
With these settings enabled you will end up destroying the VM from the backend if the VM is linked to a compute resource in Satellite upon unregistering a system.
- Option
Destroy associated VM on host delete
should be disabled by default, Since VM gets deleted from compute resources while unregistering it from the satellite.
Environment
- Red Hat Satellite 6
