Description

Cloned from https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1247946
Description of problem:

How to patch all hosts through Satellite 6 in host collection.

We can patch individual packages for a host collection, but there is no way to update all packages for a host collection. Also, there should be a way to check (logs of) what was updated when.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
Satellite 6

How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. on satellite 6 web UI : Go to Hosts -> Host collection
2. On the host collection created -> Collection Actions
3. Package Installation, removal and Update -> we need to search for particular package or group and perform the action
4. There is no way to patch hosts with all updates available

Actual results:
No way to patch all hosts at once for multiple packages.
The similar facility is available in satellite 5.x using SSM.

Expected results:
All hosts in a host collection should be able to be updated for multiple updates.

There is existing bugzilla for adding feature for tracking tasks for host collection. https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1192889
