Solution Verified - Updated -

Issue

  • Package and Errata actions on content hosts selected using the select all hosts option on the content host page fails with the following error:

    Oops, we're sorry but something went wrong No hosts have been specified.
    
    1. Navigate to WebUI > Hosts > Content Hosts.
    2. Click on the check box at the top of the table to select all the hosts displayed on the current page.
    3. Now, click on the Select all X text to select all the content hosts across all the pages. (X is the number of content hosts registered with your Red Hat Satellite.)
    4. Click on Select Actions and then select Manage Packages.
    5. Try to perform any of the actions like Install, Update, Remove or Update All Packages through remote execution and it will fail with the error Oops, we're sorry but something went wrong No hosts have been specified.
    6. The same issue is observed while applying errata: Follow steps 1 to 3 and then click on Select Actions and then select Manage Errata.
    7. Then select any errata(s) and try to apply the same using remote execution and it will fail with the error Oops, we're sorry but something went wrong No hosts have been specified.
  • On Satellite 6.10 , below steps yield the same error:
    content -> errata -> select an errata -> apply errata -> click in the checkbox left of "name" to select the first page of hosts ->
    then "select all" to select all hosts -> next
