Description Tomáš Kašpárek 2017-10-05 10:18:58 UTC 
Description of problem:
When client is executing remote script with some output and rhn_check process gets killed (e.g. BZ#1494389 and BZ#1260527) we can store the partial output and then resend it back to Satellite in case the action is picked up again in pending state (for 2nd time)

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
rhncfg-5.10.87-11

How reproducible:
always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. schedule remote command like:
#!/bin/sh
echo bla bla
sleep 10
2. rhn_check -vv on the client
3. once it's visible from rhn_check's output that the actions has started it's execution run: pkill -KILL rhn_check

Actual results:
no previous output is sent back to satellite

Expected results:
At least some output is either stored on the client or send back to satellite.

Additional info:
Typical use case are remote commands like "yum update && reboot" and osad running on client.

Won't work without updated rhn_check, but cuases no harm without it.
