Validation failed: ManageIQ::providers::openstack::cloudmanager::template cannot be a descendant of itself.

Hi @Fryguy @agrare

I am facing this issue when we connecting with provider openstack it is showing the validation failed error.

I shared the screenshot below,

evm.log

Can you suggest me any solution for this issue.

That is an interesting one @SanthoshRam-03 , what version is this and did it start happening e.g. after an upgrade or just randomly?

[SanthoshRam-03]

Hi @agrare

Thanks for quick response,

We are using Petrosian-1 version.

When we connect with default domain it works as expected.

When we try to connect with different domain (other than the default openstack domain) it's not working as expected and gives us errors.

Hi @agrare ,

Is there any update on the same. We are facing the same issue in our manageiq environment too

[agrare]

@remo233 is it also failing for you in non-default domains? Did this start happening on an upgrade to a specific version?

[remo233]

Hi @agrare ,

Yes, its failing for non-default domains. Also its happening in najdrof, oparin and petrosian.

I think it is happening in particular snapshots. So, can we please provide me the commands or steps to check the exact errored template from manageiq.

[agrare]

Okay I'm surprised we haven't seen this before if it is failing all the way back in najdorf. Okay let me create another domain in my local openstack environment and see if I can reproduce it.

Hi @remo233

FILE PATH: manageiq/providers/inventory/persister/builder/cloud_manager.rb

In the above file, I commented out the particular lines in the source code, and it worked.

def vm_and_miq_template_ancestry_save_block
lambda do |_ems, inventory_collection|
vms_inventory_collection = inventory_collection.dependency_attributes[:vms].try(:first)
miq_templates_inventory_collection = inventory_collection.dependency_attributes[:miq_templates].try(:first)

      return if vms_inventory_collection.blank? || miq_templates_inventory_collection.blank?

      # Fetch IDs of all vms and genealogy_parents, only if genealogy_parent is present
             #       vms_genealogy_parents = vms_inventory_collection.data.each_with_object({}) do |x, obj|
             #         unless x.data[:genealogy_parent].nil?
             #           genealogy_parent_id = x.data[:genealogy_parent].load.try(:id)
             #           obj[[x.id](http://x.id/)] = genealogy_parent_id if genealogy_parent_id
             #         end
             #      end
          
             #       miq_template_genealogy_parents = miq_templates_inventory_collection.data.each_with_object({}) do |x, obj|
             #         unless x.data[:genealogy_parent].nil?
             #           genealogy_parent_id = x.data[:genealogy_parent].load.try(:id)
             #           obj[[x.id](http://x.id/)] = genealogy_parent_id if genealogy_parent_id
             #         end
             #       end
          
             #       ActiveRecord::Base.transaction do
                      # associate parent templates to child instances
             #        parent_miq_templates = miq_templates_inventory_collection.model_class
             #                                                                  .where(:id => vms_genealogy_parents.values).find_each.index_by(&:id)
             #         vms_inventory_collection.model_class
             #                                 .where(:id => vms_genealogy_parents.keys).find_each do |vm|
             #           vm.update!(:genealogy_parent => parent_miq_templates[vms_genealogy_parents[[vm.id](http://vm.id/)]])
             #         end
             #       end
          
             #       ActiveRecord::Base.transaction do
                      # associate parent instances to child templates
             #         parent_vms = vms_inventory_collection.model_class
             #                                              .where(:id => miq_template_genealogy_parents.values).find_each.index_by(&:id)
             #         miq_templates_inventory_collection.model_class
             #                                           .where(:id => miq_template_genealogy_parents.keys).find_each do |miq_template|
             #           miq_template.update!(:genealogy_parent => parent_vms[miq_template_genealogy_parents[[miq_template.id](http://miq_template.id/)]])
             #         end
             #       end
    end
    

    **EXPLANATION:**

If the "vm_and_miq_template_ancestry_save_block" references the non-existent genealogy_parent column and you've ensured that this column is not required for the refresh functionality to work, then these changes should not negatively affect the refresh process.

Hi @agrare Is this correct?
