Note: This bug is displayed in read-only format because
the product is no longer active in Red Hat Bugzilla.
Red Hat Satellite engineering is moving the tracking of its product development work on Satellite to Red Hat Jira (issues.redhat.com). If you're a Red Hat customer, please continue to file support cases via the Red Hat customer portal. If you're not, please head to the "Satellite project" in Red Hat Jira and file new tickets here. Individual Bugzilla bugs will be migrated starting at the end of May. If you cannot log in to RH Jira, please consult article #7032570. That failing, please send an e-mail to the RH Jira admins at rh-issues@redhat.com to troubleshoot your issue as a user management inquiry. The email creates a ServiceNow ticket with Red Hat. Individual Bugzilla bugs that are migrated will be moved to status "CLOSED", resolution "MIGRATED", and set with "MigratedToJIRA" in "Keywords". The link to the successor Jira issue will be found under "Links", have a little "two-footprint" icon next to it, and direct you to the "Satellite project" in Red Hat Jira (issue links are of type "https://issues.redhat.com/browse/SAT-XXXX", where "X" is a digit). This same link will be available in a blue banner at the top of the page informing you that that bug has been migrated.
Description of problem:
After satellite-change-hostname has been completed successfully, at the end, the same command asks to re-register the client using old deprecated method.
Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): satellite-6.13.0-4.el8sat.noarch
How reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Run below command on Satellite machine to change its hostname.
# satellite-change-hostname new_sat_fqdn --username admin --password redhat
2. Allow the command to execute successfully.
Actual results: The command throws below output on screen at the end.
~~~~~~~~~~
**** Hostname change complete! ****
IMPORTANT:
You will have to install the new bootstrap rpm and reregister all clients and Capsules with subscription-manager
(update organization and environment arguments appropriately):
yum remove -y katello-ca-consumer*
rpm -Uvh http://satellite.example.com/pub/katello-ca-consumer-latest.noarch.rpm
subscription-manager register --org="Default_Organization" --environment="Library" --force
Then reattach subscriptions to the client(s) and run:
subscription-manager refresh
yum repolist
On all Capsules, you will need to re-run the satellite-installer with this command:
satellite-installer --foreman-proxy-foreman-base-url https://satellite.example.com \
--foreman-proxy-trusted-hosts satellite.example.com
If Puppet is enabled on the Capsule, add the following to the installer command:
--puppet-server-foreman-url https://satellite.example.com
Short hostnames have not been updated, please update those manually.
~~~~~~~~~~
Here we are asking user to manually remove the katello-ca-consumer package, install the new katello-ca-consumer package and then re-run 'subscription-manager register' command which is a deprecated method now.
Expected results: Instead of above method, we should ask user to generate curl command using Global Registration Template method and use it to re-register the client machine back with Satellite.
