Description John Sefler 2015-05-27 18:41:00 UTC

Description of problem:
After the solution for bug 1223860 was implemented, the subscription-manager config --remove=SECTION.NAME function no longer eradicates the NAME parameter from the /etc/rhsm/rhsm.conf file.  Instead it restores the default value.  This appears to work for all of the existing parameters except rhsm.repo_ca_cert.

Technically the default value is...

[root@jsefler-os6 ~]# grep repo_ca_cert /etc/rhsm/rhsm.conf
repo_ca_cert=%(ca_cert_dir)sredhat-uep.pem

But after running the set and remove command, the variable is lost...

[root@jsefler-os6 ~]# subscription-manager config --rhsm.repo_ca_cert=/tmp/foobar
[root@jsefler-os6 ~]# grep repo_ca_cert /etc/rhsm/rhsm.conf
repo_ca_cert=/tmp/foobar
[root@jsefler-os6 ~]# subscription-manager config --remove=rhsm.repo_ca_cert
You have removed the value for section rhsm and name repo_ca_cert.
The default value for repo_ca_cert will now be used.
[root@jsefler-os6 ~]# grep repo_ca_cert /etc/rhsm/rhsm.conf
repo_ca_cert=/etc/rhsm/ca/redhat-uep.pem
[root@jsefler-os6 ~]# 

FAILED: expected repo_ca_cert=%(ca_cert_dir)sredhat-uep.pem



Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
[root@jsefler-os6 ~]# rpm -q subscription-manager
subscription-manager-1.14.8-1.el6.x86_64


How reproducible:


Steps to Reproduce:
1. above

Actual results:
repo_ca_cert=/etc/rhsm/ca/redhat-uep.pem

Expected results:
repo_ca_cert=%(ca_cert_dir)sredhat-uep.pem

Verifying Version...
[root@jsefler-os6 ~]# rpm -q python-rhsm subscription-manager
python-rhsm-1.14.3-1.el6.x86_64
subscription-manager-1.14.9-1.el6.x86_64

[root@jsefler-os6 ~]# grep repo_ca_cert /etc/rhsm/rhsm.conf
repo_ca_cert=%(ca_cert_dir)sredhat-uep.pem
[root@jsefler-os6 ~]# subscription-manager config --rhsm.repo_ca_cert=/tmp/foobar
[root@jsefler-os6 ~]# grep repo_ca_cert /etc/rhsm/rhsm.conf
repo_ca_cert=/tmp/foobar
[root@jsefler-os6 ~]# subscription-manager config --remove=rhsm.repo_ca_cert
You have removed the value for section rhsm and name repo_ca_cert.
The default value for repo_ca_cert will now be used.
[root@jsefler-os6 ~]# grep repo_ca_cert /etc/rhsm/rhsm.conf
repo_ca_cert=%(ca_cert_dir)sredhat-uep.pem
[root@jsefler-os6 ~]# 

VERIFIED: The original default repo_ca_cert is restored after setting and removing using the config module

Comment 5 John Sefler 2015-06-08 22:08:48 UTC

Additional Note...

Although the default value for rhsm.repo_ca_cert is now restored after setting and removing using the config module, the subscription-manager config --list does not report the repo_ca_cert value in brackets to indicate the Default value is in use.  That is likely due to the python variable substitution for ca_cert_dir.  This seems like a reasonable compromise.


[root@jsefler-os6 ~]# subscription-manager config --list | tail -20
[rhsm]
   baseurl = [https://cdn.redhat.com]
   ca_cert_dir = [/etc/rhsm/ca/]
   consumercertdir = [/etc/pki/consumer]
   entitlementcertdir = [/etc/pki/entitlement]
   full_refresh_on_yum = [0]
   manage_repos = [1]
   pluginconfdir = [/etc/rhsm/pluginconf.d]
   plugindir = [/usr/share/rhsm-plugins]
   productcertdir = [/etc/pki/product]
   repo_ca_cert = /etc/rhsm/ca/redhat-uep.pem   <======= DEFAULT VALUE?
   report_package_profile = [1]

[rhsmcertd]
   autoattachinterval = [1440]
   certcheckinterval = [240]

[] - Default value in use
