Plugins » Foreman Remote Execution

Cloned from https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1944322

Description of problem:

1. Job execution fails (for any reason)
2. User wants to rerun job on failed hosts using hammer.
3. Rerun job cannot be posted due to error below:

~~~

1. hammer job-invocation rerun --id 20057 --failed-only=true
   Validation failed: Targeting: Hosts is invalid
   ~~~

If "rerun failed" is called using webUI it works fine.

How reproducible:

• Host on Satellite must have some inconsistent configurations (easy way to reproduce it is assigning a medium_id to the host that is not linked to its operating system) **

1. Try running a job and force it to fail (type wrong password, for example). Note the job id from the URL (https://192.168.1.1/job_invocations/20060 => job id is 20060)
2. Ensure host has a wrong medium_id assigned:

- Create a random media on Satellite and get its id (let's say, medium_id = 12). Do not assign this media to the operating system of the host!
   - Assign the medium_id to the host manually:
~~
echo "update hosts set medium_id = '12'  where id = '57';"|su - postgres -c "psql foreman" 
~~

3. Rerun the job using hammer and it will fail:

~_{~
hammer job-invocation rerun --id 20060 --failed-only=true}
~~

On the webUI (https://192.168.1.1/job_invocations/20060) click option "Rerun failed" and job will start properly.

Actual results:

WebUI is able to rerun job. Hammer cannot rerun job due to extra verification.

Expected results:

WebUI and hammer should be able to rerun the job (or both should fail). I only expect consistency.
