Bug 733643

Created attachment 520065 [details]
The OS name should be RHEL instead of fedora under system properties

lets retest this one too. its showing Red Hat Enterprise Linux Server for a rhel6 box I just registered. this information is actually grabbed from candlepin.

I'm still getting the same results with following build:

[root@dhcp201-204 ~]# rpm -qa | grep katello
katello-cli-0.1.9-1.git.2.18d37b8.fc15.noarch
katello-0.1.76-1.git.48.ee25bad.fc15.noarch
[root@dhcp201-204 ~]# 


I registered another rhel6 box and its still showing the fedora under system properties..

[root@dhcp201-204 ~]# katello -u admin -p admin system register --name dhcp201-119.englab.pnq.redhat.com --org=ACME_Corporation --environment=test_env
Successfully registered system [ dhcp201-119.englab.pnq.redhat.com ]


[root@dhcp201-119 ~]# cat /etc/redhat-release

what version of candlepin are you using? this information actually comes from candlepin and katello just displays to the UI.

I'm using following versions of candlepin and katello

[root@dhcp201-204 ~]# rpm -qa | grep candlepin
candlepin-tomcat6-0.4.14-1.fc15.noarch
candlepin-0.4.14-1.fc15.noarch
[root@dhcp201-204 ~]# rpm -qa | grep katello
katello-cli-0.1.9-1.git.2.18d37b8.fc15.noarch
katello-0.1.76-1.git.48.ee25bad.fc15.noarch

I registered a new rhel61 machine and found same results. 

[root@dhcp201-187 ~]# katello -u admin -p admin system register --name=dhcp201-195.englab.pnq.redhat.com --org=sghai_org --environment=testing
Successfully registered system [ dhcp201-195.englab.pnq.redhat.com ]

Distribution.name: Fedora

[root@dhcp201-187 ~]# 


[root@dhcp201-195 ~]# subscription-manager facts --list | grep distribution
distribution.id: Santiago
distribution.name: Red Hat Enterprise Linux Server
distribution.version: 6.1
[root@dhcp201-195 ~]# 

UI is also showing 'fedora' distribution under the system properties of newly registered rhel61 system.

If I register a rhel node using rhsm then I can see the correct distribution name under systems properties. However if I register rhel6 node using katello-cli then system properties lists the distribution name as 'fedora'

NOT_IMPLEMENTED_FEATURE 

This is hard coded in the katello-cli:

class SystemAPI(KatelloAPI):
    """
    Connection class to access environment calls
    """
    def register(self, name, org, envName, activation_keys, cp_type):
        if envName is not None:
            environment = get_environment(org, envName)
            if environment is None:
                return None

            path = "/api/environments/%s/systems" % environment["id"]
        else:
            path = "/api/organizations/%s/systems" % org
        sysdata = {
          "name": name,
          "cp_type": cp_type,
          "facts": {
            "distribution.name": "Fedora"
          }
        }
        if activation_keys:
            sysdata["activation_keys"] = activation_keys
        return self.server.POST(path, sysdata)[1]

We did not implement this yet. Bryan set proper priority for this one. Where are we going to collect facts from by the way?
