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.

Description J.C. Molet 2011-06-21 18:46:32 UTC
Description of problem:
When you are registered to classic RHN and launch subscription-manager-gui, you get a warning message saying your system is already configured to receive updates.  You get the same message when you run firstboot and are already registered to classic RHN. This warning is redundant in the case of firstboot as the rhn module in firstboot already does this checking, and skips over the module entirely.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
subscription-manager-0.95.17-1.el6_1.x86_64
subscription-manager-firstboot-0.95.17-1.el6_1.x86_64
subscription-manager-gnome-0.95.17-1.el6_1.x86_64


How reproducible:
always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Install a rhel machine (5 or 6)
2. Register to rhn classic (via kickstart or some other means)
3. run firstboot (or firstboot -r post installation)
  
Actual results:
You get a redundant warning message pop up.

Expected results:
You get no error message in firstboot.
