1115499 – [RFE] Allow users to enable X and disable all in the same line

RHEL Engineering is moving the tracking of its product development work on RHEL 6 through RHEL 9 to Red Hat Jira (issues.redhat.com). If you're a Red Hat customer, please continue to file support cases via the Red Hat customer portal. If you're not, please head to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira and file new tickets here. Individual Bugzilla bugs in the statuses "NEW", "ASSIGNED", and "POST" are being migrated throughout September 2023. Bugs of Red Hat partners with an assigned Engineering Partner Manager (EPM) are migrated in late September as per pre-agreed dates. Bugs against components "kernel", "kernel-rt", and "kpatch" are only migrated if still in "NEW" or "ASSIGNED". If you cannot log in to RH Jira, please consult article #7032570. That failing, please send an e-mail to the RH Jira admins at rh-issues@redhat.com to troubleshoot your issue as a user management inquiry. The email creates a ServiceNow ticket with Red Hat. Individual Bugzilla bugs that are migrated will be moved to status "CLOSED", resolution "MIGRATED", and set with "MigratedToJIRA" in "Keywords". The link to the successor Jira issue will be found under "Links", have a little "two-footprint" icon next to it, and direct you to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira (issue links are of type "https://issues.redhat.com/browse/RHEL-XXXX", where "X" is a digit). This same link will be available in a blue banner at the top of the page informing you that that bug has been migrated.

Description Bryan Kearney 2014-07-02 13:26:33 UTC

Many documents using subscription manager have these steps:

subscription-manager repos --disable="*"
subscription-manager repos --enable=X, --enable=Y, --enable=Z

It would be nice to do this in a single command.

Comment 1 Devan Goodwin 2014-07-09 14:34:43 UTC

Will assume we process them in the order they're given, otherwise we'd have a bit of a logic problem.

Comment 2 Devan Goodwin 2014-07-14 13:31:04 UTC

Fixed in subscription-manager.git master: 034a799caba16bab23689899489412d90c422d90

Will appear in: subscription-manager-1.12.8-1

Comment 3 Bryan Kearney 2014-07-30 19:24:17 UTC

Acking 7.1

Comment 4 John Sefler 2014-08-13 20:34:19 UTC

Moving back to rhel6.6 since dev appears to have implemented it in comment 2 which will be delivered on rhel6.6.

Comment 5 John Sefler 2014-08-22 19:21:43 UTC

The ability to specify multiple values and wildcards in one line is already implemented in RHEL6.5, but the order that the --enable/--disable requests are processed is not ideal...

[root@jsefler-6 ~]# rpm -q subscription-manager
subscription-manager-1.9.11-1.el6.x86_64

^ Notice that all of the --enable requests are processed before the --disable requests. This may not be the desired order.

Comment 6 Rehana 2014-08-26 14:17:34 UTC

Retested on,

 rpm -qa subscription* python-rhsm
subscription-manager-gui-1.12.13-1.el6.x86_64
subscription-manager-firstboot-1.12.13-1.el6.x86_64

subscription-manager-migration-1.12.13-1.el6.x86_64

subscription-manager-debuginfo-1.12.13-1.el6.x86_64
subscription-manager-1.12.13-1.el6.x86_64


Below is the two set of queries, to demonstrate that the sub-man command request  with multiple values and wildcards in one line is now giving correct results.
