Comment 2 Ryan McCabe 2018-03-01 16:07:35 UTC

It looks like this is broken because the disabled list is taking precedence over the enabled list.

For the moment, I think it should work if you explicitly disable only what needs disabling. It will need fixing upstream to make it work as it ought to.

Comment 3 Eduardo Otubo 2020-09-29 12:55:05 UTC

Can you double check if you meet this issue with latest versions of cloud-init like RHEL-7.9/cloud-init-19.4?

Comment 4 Christopher Wawak 2020-09-29 13:25:54 UTC

Unfortunately, I don't have access to the appropriate environments (or the same job) that would allow me to replicate this. Sorry, all!

Comment 5 Eduardo Otubo 2020-09-29 13:33:00 UTC

@huzhao, can you reproduce this issue with latest release?

Comment 6 xiachen 2020-09-30 07:58:55 UTC

This is not a bug. It is caused by using the wrong parameter "activation_key" in configuration rh_subscription module.
The correct parameter should be "activation-key".
see the example here, https://cloudinit.readthedocs.io/en/latest/topics/modules.html#redhat-subscription

and I checked source code, it works as expected to show the message "rh_subscription: module not configured", so close it as NOT A BUG.
detail in cloudinit/config/cc_rh_subscription.py


Tested rh_subscription module with disable and enable repo, 
cloud-init-0.7.9-9.el7_4.2.x86_64 & rhel 7.4
cloud-init-19.4-7.el7.x86_64 & rhel7.9
Result: PASS.
