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 Alex Wood 2014-11-03 18:48:51 UTC

This request is an extension of the RFE filed in bug 1146125.  Adding a --pool-only option to the list subcommand will allow users to easily attach to pools matching the string specified in --matches (without requiring an intermediate step using cut or awk)

For example:

$ subscription-manager list --matches "*Enterprise*" --pool-only
poolid123
poolid345
poolid567

This command can then be placed in a loop and the results sent to attach like

$ for pool in $(subscription-manager list --matches "*Enterprise*" --pool-only); do subscription-manager attach --pool $pool; done

Ideally, subscription-manager attach would also be altered to read from stdin when given a certain option so that the user could use a pipe instead of a loop.  For example:

$ subscription-manager list --matches "*Enterprise*" --pool-only | subscription-manager attach -
