Description Garik Khachikyan 2012-07-18 15:02:20 UTC 
+++ This bug was initially created as a clone of Bug #841227 +++

Description of problem:
Recently facter displays really a nice list of EC2 properties that could become very useful for the clients. Worth having it implemented in Katello too!
Like:
---
c2_ami_id => ami-cc5af9a5
ec2_ami_launch_index => 0
ec2_ami_manifest_path => (unknown)
ec2_block_device_mapping_ami => /dev/sda1
ec2_block_device_mapping_ephemeral0 => /dev/sdf
ec2_block_device_mapping_ephemeral1 => /dev/sdg
ec2_block_device_mapping_root => /dev/sda1
ec2_hostname => ip-10-28-201-23.ec2.internal
ec2_instance_id => i-7e6a2d06
ec2_instance_type => t1.micro
ec2_kernel_id => aki-08ed0761
ec2_local_hostname => ip-10-28-201-23.ec2.internal
ec2_local_ipv4 => 10.28.201.23
ec2_placement_availability_zone => us-east-1b
ec2_profile => default-paravirtual
ec2_public_hostname => ec2-<elastic-ip>.compute-1.amazonaws.com
ec2_public_ipv4 => <Elastic IPv4>
ec2_public_keys_0_openssh_key => <key_here>
ec2_reservation_id => r-2cab5d48
ec2_security_groups => quick-start-1

this is a RHSM/Candlepin bug.   moving
Comment 2 Adrian Likins 2013-05-24 14:39:08 UTC 
This would be an excellent use of subscription-managers plugin support.

In fact, there is an example plugin that uses 'facter' to augment the
collected facts (subscription-manager/example-plugins/facts.py). 

That sample plugin works, but could use some testing/hardening to make it production ready.
