Bug #2849
open
Changing a host name, causes errors when a user wishes to rebuild the host.
Description
Description of problem:
I tried to change an existing host name and in some of the times theforeman did not allow it (complained about duplicate IP / MAC addresses).
In other cases theforeman allowed me to change the host name but complained about the same error when I tried to rebuild the host.
Version-Release: 1.2.0
How reproducible: 3/3
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Add a Host to theforeman.
2. Change The host name
3. Go to the host page: https://<theforeman fqdn>/hosts/<host fqdn>
4. Click Build
Actual results:
Fails with the following error:
Failed to enable <host fqdn> for installation: ["Ip has already been taken", "Mac has already been taken"]
Expected results:
No Error should be expected here.
Additional Information:
I tried to delete my Host and re-add it to theforeman (as a workaround), but theforman did not allow me to add the host with duplicate IP / MAC error.
