Description of problem: ESX hypervisor has been registered to SAM, But it can't subscribe the "Red Hat Employee Subscription" Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): virt-who-0.8-12.el7.noarch How reproducible: always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Configure virt-who in esx mode and set VIRTWHO_INTERVAL=5, start virt-who service.ESX hypervisor has been registered to SAM 2. Open SAM web UI with "http://[SAM Server IP]/sam", choose the ESX hypervisor, Then subscribe the "Red Hat Employee Subscription" Actual results: Subscribe "Red Hat Employee Subscription" failed. In the SAM web UI, it will pop up error message as the following: "Too many content sets for certificate Red Hat Employee Subscription. A newer client may be available to address this problem. See kbase https://access.redhat.com/knowledge/node/129003 for more information." Expected results: The ESX hypervisor should subscribe "Red Hat Employee Subscription" successfully [NOTE]: The solution in the https://access.redhat.com/knowledge/node/129003 can't resolve this problem
This has nothing to do with esx. What system are you attempting to attach subscriptions to? What is the value of the "system.certificate_version"? If that key doesn't exist or is less than 3 we can't allow more than a maximum content length (I forget the actual number). Update subscription manager, and run subscription-manager facts --update Please post the version of subscription-manager that you are using on the system that cannot attach the subscription in question.
Disregard most of my previous comment, it looks like we need to add "system.certificate_version":"3.2" to the default hypervisor, or check for hypervisor type consumers and never block subscriptions from being attached.
