Description

Does it make any sense for a host to be registered to

1) an import-only content view;
2) an 'Export-Library'content view
3) a "generated" content view?

I'm not 100% clear on which of these should and should not be allowed. But for the ones that should not,

a) The Katello registration API should prevent this
b) In the new host details CV selection screen, these CVs should not be listed as options

Re: `Does it make any sense for a host to be registered to`

1) an import-only content view; - YES
2) an 'Import-Library'content view - ? (may be what about users who already have it registered to the Import Library?. What if we want to compare versions of library snapshots (in the future...) )
3) a "generated" content view? - NO

You cannot register to a generated content view, since Katello doesn't create the Candlepin environment:
