RHEL Engineering is moving the tracking of its product development work on RHEL 6 through RHEL 9 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 "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira and file new tickets here. Individual Bugzilla bugs in the statuses "NEW", "ASSIGNED", and "POST" are being migrated throughout September 2023. Bugs of Red Hat partners with an assigned Engineering Partner Manager (EPM) are migrated in late September as per pre-agreed dates. Bugs against components "kernel", "kernel-rt", and "kpatch" are only migrated if still in "NEW" or "ASSIGNED". 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 "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira (issue links are of type "https://issues.redhat.com/browse/RHEL-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.

Am I compliant or not?
Description of problem:
While rhsm-compliance-icon is running with its default --check-period (once-a-day), it is easy to run subscription-manager cli/gui and autosubscribe yourself into compliance. Yet the rhsm-compliance-icon remains in a non-compliant state.
See attached screenshot.
This situation is confusing for the user who will not have the patience or knowledge that if they just wait one day, the rhsm-compliance-icon will disappear. Yes... I know clicking it will zap it out of site, but that's not such a great usability feature either.
Changing the default --check-period to something smaller (like 5 seconds) would be a quick fix, but it's not too elegant.
It would be nicer if...
<jbowes> the client apps (the cli/gui) might also have to be smart enough to tell this daemon to recheck, so it can emit compliance change signals right after they've done something
