Am I compliant or not? none

Description John Sefler 2011-02-09 17:00:45 UTC 
Created attachment 477860 [details]
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

Testing transition from compliance to non-compliance with a single subscribable product configured, the following is a summary of my test case results:

GUI---------------------------------
subscription-manager-gui subscribe
  PASS

subscription-manager-gui unsubscribe
  PASS

subscription-manager-gui register with autosubscribe
  PASS

subscription-manager-gui unregister
  PASS

CLI---------------------------------
subscription-manager subscribe --auto
  PASS

subscription-manager unsubscribe --all
  PASS

subscription-manager subscribe --pool=
  PASS

subscription-manager unsubscribe --serial=
  PASS

subscription-manager unsubscribe --serial=
  PASS

subscription-manager register --autosubscribe
  FAIL

subscription-manager unregister
  FAIL


moving back to ASSIGNED to fix the cli cases for register and unregister
