I neglected to list a Start Date... 7. display a "Start Date" which shows the first date of the rolled up entitlements that cover this product (at either yellow or green level). If the status of the product is "Not Subscribed" today, then the start date should reflect the next future date that an entitlement covers this product and the "Status" should be "Future Subscription" just like the gui. Here's a past customer bug impacted if we change the behavior of list --installed: Bug 709412 - subscription manager cli uses product name comparisons in the list command

736424: list --installed only shows installed products
list --installed should now only shows installed
products, and shows a more concise and accurate set
of date about those products
add cert_sorter. get_status to get the entitlement status for a product id
update the output format of list --installed as well.
Add get_end_date to cert_sorter to figure out end date for a
product (probably needs more of the find_first_invalid_product
logic in there)

^^^ VERIFIED
Although we have subscribed to many pools and received multiple entitlements for the installed product, now only one report for the product shows in the list --installed.
The issue we now face is what the proper rolled up status and dates should be reported for the installed product. This issue has been opened as a separate bug 741155.
Since the problem described in this bug report should be resolved in a recent advisory, it has been closed with a resolution of ERRATA. For information on the advisory, and where to find the updated files, follow the link below. If the solution does not work for you, open a new bug report. http://rhn.redhat.com/errata/RHBA-2011-1695.html |
Description of problem: This complaint about the CLI function "subscription-manager list --installed" has been a long time coming. Now with the introduction of stacking, I've been tipped over the edge. Here's the problem: list --installed currently displays a "join" of the product certs and the entitlement certs and labels each with a status of {"Installed", "Not Installed", "Subscribed", "Not Subscribed", "Partially Subscribed"}. It is not intuitive by the function name (list --installed) why the list shows more information than the products that are simply installed. I believe the list --installed should do the following... 1. list one entry per product cert located in /etc/pki/product 2. display a "ProductName" that comes from the product namespace in the product cert in /etc/pki/product (not the ordernamespace of a covering entitlement cert) 3. display a "Status" which is one of {"Not Subscribed", "Partially Subscribed", Subscribed"}. Effectively the status is determined by a roll-up of all the covering entitlements to determine this value. 4. display an "End Date" which is the first day the status will change to "Not Subscribed". Also determined by a roll-up of all the covering entitlements. 5. display the "Version" because it is part of the product cert and also displayed by the GUI 6. display the "Arch" because it is part of the product cert and also displayed by the GUI It would look something like this: # subscription-manager list --installed +-------------------------------------------+ Installed Product Status +-------------------------------------------+ ProductName: Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6 Server Version: 6.1 Arch: x86_64 Status: Partially Subscribed End Date: 06/16/2012 I believe this proposal would bring the CLI behavior closer to the behavior of "My Installed Software" in the GUI. Additional info: Changing this behavior may help address and certainly impact all these bugs: Bug 733327 - stacking entitlements reports as distinct entries in cli list --installed Bug 734880 - subscription-manager list --installed reports differently between LEGACY vs NEW SKU subscriptions Bug 733805 - the name in the subscription-manager installed product listing is changing after a valid subscribe is performed Bug 734990 - list --installed gives confusing output after subscribing RHEL for SAP
