Bug 1607310

Hello Sandeep,

This seems to be custom redhat-release build done by OpenShift people.
I'll need more information this is how we define pretty name.

%define debug_package %{nil}
%define product_family Red Hat Enterprise Linux
%define variant_titlecase Server
%define variant_lowercase server
%define release_name Maipo
%define base_release_version 7
%define full_release_version 7.6
%define dist_release_version 7
%define beta Beta
%define dist .el%{dist_release_version}
# repo family ensures that productids have more fine versioning. beta,htb,dist
%define repo_family beta

PRETTY_NAME="%{product_family}%{?variant_titlecase: %{variant_titlecase}} %{full_release_version}%{?beta: %{beta}} (%{release_name})"

I'll ask somebody from openshift to move bug correctly under OpenShift wings.

Thank you Lubos.

Moving it to Openshift ART team who are responsible for modifying the file.

I just inherited a ton of systems that have this in the login screen and they were never openshift and never will run openshift.
Turns out someone used whatever custom iso that was made for openshift to build a "RHEL 7" template in vcenter and then sent jenkins off deploying from it for some time.

Can we just change the pretty name or are all of these systems possibly broken due to openshift specific changes to the OS (why have a special release if it is just normal RHEL)?

Currently these are all pointed to standard RHEL repos in satellite and using normal RHEL licenses.

Hi Demian,

It would be difficult to answer without knowing more about what is installed. I recommend opening a case and attaching a sosreport from one of the systems to pursue whether anything needs to be done other than correcting the pretty name.
