Description John Sefler 2013-09-16 18:19:30 UTC
Description of problem:
This is the server-side of bug 1008557.

In light of the increasing number of subscription types (instance based, ram, cores, sockets) that often require a quantity more than one to achieve compliance, it would be helpful for the candlepin server to automatically give a CLI consumer the quantity needed to achieve compliance when the --quantity option is not explicitly specified by the CLI consumer.

I believe this will facilitate the transition to new instance-based subscriptions and avoid this troublesome stdout attachment message:
  "Quantity '%s' is not a multiple of instance multiplier '%s'"

VERIFIED: Although no --quantity value was specified during the call to subscription-manager attach, the needed quantity is now used to achieve compliance.
