Description Dave Sullivan 2014-11-04 15:39:21 UTC
Description of problem:

satellite fqdn: abc123-us.acme.com
satellite cname: satellite.nomura.com


I have installed my satellite 6 with CNAME “satellite.acme.com” and created all required certificates using 

katello-installer --foreman-db-password foreman --foreman-db-username foreman --katello-proxy-url http://applicationwebproxy.acme.com --katello-proxy-port 8080 --certs-ca-common-name "satellite.acme.com" --certs-node-fqdn "satellite.acme.com" --capsule-parent-fqdn "satellite.acme.com" --foreman-foreman-url="https://satellite.acme.com" --foreman-admin-password changeme

 

Now when I try to register consumer I am getting some error …  did I miss something ?
 

[root@xyz123 product]# subscription-manager register --org ACME --name=xyz123.acme.com

Username: admin

Password:

Peer certificate subjectAltName does not match host, expected abc123-us.acme.com, got DNS:satellite.nomura.com

Additional info:

This can be worked around by modifying /etc/rhsm/rhsm.conf on the consumer to point to the cname

hostname = satellite.acme.com

Comment 2 Mike McCune 2014-11-06 16:34:22 UTC
We require a FQDN and not a CName for Satellite as noted in our Installation Guide:

https://access.redhat.com/documentation/en-US/Red_Hat_Satellite/6.0/html-single/Installation_Guide/index.html#Prerequisites3

We are unlikely to change this in the near term and this could be considered an RFE if it is a feature we should evaluate. If you feel we should re-evaluate this bug as an RFE feel free to re-open with justification.

Comment 4 Dave Sullivan 2015-07-25 19:59:16 UTC
If cluster is handling hostname/vip movement cnames are not necessarily needed dns A records could be used instead.

Which makes this a little less important.

Comment 7 Bryan Kearney 2016-07-08 20:20:41 UTC
Per 6.3 planning, moving out non acked bugs to the backlog
