Description Pradeep Kilambi 2009-03-19 20:03:20 UTC
Description of problem:

We have a request to amend additional metadata to support these calls:

yum list-baseurls available
yum list-installed-sizes available
yum list-packagers available

From what I see we dont store any of these currently in satellite or hosted database, neither at sync time nor at upload time. 

The hosted changes I was anticipating were,

* Fix the schema in hosted to include these fields.
* fix the exporter to include these additional fields in the sync metadata so at sync time from sats we populate these fields.
* rhn-Package-upload or whatever tool hosted is using these days to populate
your db

I've a similar one for satellite work as well. Just opening this bug for hosted before I forget.

Currently users get:

As you may already be aware, Red Hat is transitioning from the Red Hat Network (RHN) hosted interface to the Red Hat Subscription Management (RHSM) interface in July 2017. Red Hat has invested in and seen success from RHN for many years, and used that experience to build more robust technologies like RHSM. 
 
If you have not yet migrated your RHN systems to RHSM or you are a Red Hat Satellite customer, please review the information from. https://access.redhat.com/products/red-hat-subscription-management#migration. 
 
Since we are shutting down RHN, no further actions will be taken with this bug or enhancement request.  You can find additional information at RHSM product page (https://access.redhat.com/products/red-hat-subscription-management).  If you have further questions, please contact support (https://access.redhat.com/products/red-hat-subscription-management#support).
