Change the OS of multiple hosts through UI
Description
Hi All,
I have to rebuild the 50 linux box using foreman, is there any parameter or features to change the OS at a time rather than select each and every host on foreman UI, As my initial finding multiple hosts can be build to select the SELECT ACTION tab but there is no any option to select the OS for all hosts. let me know if any suggestion or advise for that.

This is not possible through the UI. However, you should be able to iterate through all hosts in /api/v2/hosts and use the API to update the OS in a programmatic way. You may use hammer https://github.com/theforeman/hammer-cli-foreman or the API directly for this.
I've changed this to be a feature request as it would be nice to have.
