There could be a huge number of reasons for this, can you point to exactly what validation/orchestration step is failing here? At least provide logs.

Subject changed from When try to cancel build in the hosts screen it errors with "Failed to cancel pending build" on Red Hat Satellite 6. to Trying to cancel a build on a host with invalid data doesn't provide any additional information to address the problem
Status changed from Need more information to New
Target version set to 1.6.1

I've renamed the subject of the issue. I agree that there is too many things that could be wrong
with the host to be able to address this in one issue. However, what all the issues have in common
is the error message not really be informative.

The solution to this issue should be letting the user know what exactly is not valid on the host
when the cancel build fails.
