Hi,
a smart proxy of my foreman installation is gone and was replaced by a
new one with a new host name. When I try to remove the old one, I get a
looooooong list of hosts that are still "using" the old smart proxy
(which is impossible, the old one is gone and won't return).
When I try doing a mass change of puppet server and puppet CA, foreman
tries to contact the old proxy and fails.
How do I get rid of a smart proxy that is already gone? Is there a force
delete option?
Greetings

The error is "The Puppet CA proxy could not be set for host: (hostname)
(ERF12-4395 [ProxyAPI::ProxyException]: Unable to retrieve DHCP entry
for (mac address) ([RestClient::Forbidden]): 403 Forbidden) for proxy
http://oldhost:8443/dhcp).
Since there is no "fail on mismatch" box on the way to the error, I
think we might have misunderstanding here. I go to Hosts => All hosts,
select some of the hosts, select "Change Puppet CA" from the "Select
Action" dropdown that appears next to the "New Host" button when I
select a host. A dialog appears that has a Checkbox "Keep selected hosts
for a future action", and a dropdown where the (old and new) puppet CA hosts
are listed. I then select the new host from the dropdown, click "Submit"
and get the error message quoted above.
