Bug 634000

Here is what I found out.

If run pulp-client consumer create on my pulp server, and then do the pulp-admin consumer bind on my second client, the bind successfully completes.


[root@preethi ~]#  pulp-client -u admin -p admin consumer create --id=preethi.usersys.redhat.com 
 Successfully created consumer [ preethi.usersys.redhat.com ]
[root@preethi ~]# pulp-admin consumer -u admin -p admin bind --id=10.16.120.215 --repoid=f12_x86_64
 Successfully subscribed consumer [10.16.120.215] to repo [f12_x86_64]

This is caused by the fact that we don't know if it is the pulp-admin calling the bind() method or pulp-client and we end up trying to use any existing Consumer certificates on the *admin* machine.

Note the bind call in the client code:

    def _bind(self):
        consumerid = self.getConsumer()
        if not self.options.repoid:
            print _("repo id required. Try --help")
            sys.exit(0)
        try:
            self.cconn.bind(consumerid, self.options.repoid)
            self.repolib.update()

that repolib.update() should never be called if pulp-admin is executing.  that is trying to update the package profile from the *admin* box, not the consumer.

need to determine how to handle this from an architectural perspective.

re-assigning to jortel since this is a feature he is working on.

Updated so CLI (client) only updates the pulp.repo when running as pulp-client.  Further, the API was updated to do asynchronous RMI to agent (client) to update the pulp.repo file.  This does result in updating the pulp.repo file twice in cases where the bind/unbind happens through pulp-client.  But, that's not a problem because:

 * The bind/unbind operation is low frequency
 * The repolib.update() is protected against concurrent update.
 * Updating the .repo file is fast and efficient.

Fixed in the 0.73 release.

before I created the consumer for the server I get the error as follows

[root@preethi ~]# pulp-admin consumer bind --id=10.16.120.161 --repoid=f12_x86_64_update
error: operation failed: "Authorization failed. Check your username and password or your certificate"

once I create the consumer for the server, the pulp-admin bind becomes successful.

[root@preethi ~]# pulp-client -u admin -p admin consumer create --id=preethi.usersys.redhat.com
Successfully created consumer [ preethi.usersys.redhat.com ]

[root@preethi ~]# pulp-admin consumer bind --id=10.16.120.161 --repoid=f12_x86_64_update
Successfully subscribed consumer [10.16.120.161] to repo [f12_x86_64_update]

I think the issue here is that the client is not loading the admin certificate.  This should be fixed when 631526 is fixed.

Pradeep, I'm assigning to you since 631526 is assigned to you.

Fixed in build 0.78.
