Forum reference: https://community.theforeman.org/t/brand-new-smart-proxy-forces-association-with-almost-all-locations/17934

Problem: When creating a new Smart Proxy, with --puppet-server=false --foreman-proxy-puppet=false" --foreman-proxy-puppetca=false, the Smart Proxy gets bound to all Locations except Default Location, cannot assign it solely to the Location I need. The option to remove unwanted Locations is greyed out with “This is used by a host”.

Expected outcome: Be able to assign the proxy to Locations I select, not all.

Foreman and Proxy versions: 1.23.2

Distribution and version: CentOS 7.7 x86_64

Other relevant data:

If I enable either --foreman-proxy-puppet or --foreman-proxy-puppetca, then the Smart Proxy can be assigned to any Location.

I don't use Puppet, except for foreman-installer
