Not sure related or not yet, but seems virt entitlements are not correct yet.  So may need additional steps after fix if is related

Comment 8 yuefliu 2017-02-08 09:05:05 UTC 
The bug doesn't reproduce on RHEL-6.9-20170202.0 (virt-who-0.18-3.el6.noarch) with satellite6.2.6, virt-who can correctelly report hypervisor hostname without "." to the sat server when the hostname is configured without domain name, just "server". So verified it.
