Description Anatoly Litovsky 2014-11-10 01:36:13 EST

Description of problem:

in virt-who.service: 
virt-who is dependant on syslog.target , in systemd with rsyslog the dependncy shpould be be syslog.socket
http://www.freedesktop.org/wiki/Software/systemd/syslog/

Please change to syslog.socket

Comment 2 Radek Novacek 2014-11-10 03:37:49 EST

In fact, the whole syslog dependency should go away, virt-who on RHEL-7 has an ability to log to the journal directly so syslog is not used at all.

I'll remove the dependency completely.

Comment 3 Radek Novacek 2014-11-13 06:26:59 EST

Fixed in virt-who-0.11-4.el7.

Comment 5 Liushihui 2014-11-24 02:10:23 EST

As the latest RHEL7.1 build with virt-who-0.11-3.el7.noarch, so I need to wait for a new rhel7.1 build with virt-who-0.11-4.el7 to verify this bug.

Comment 6 Liushihui 2014-11-28 03:14:00 EST

Verified it on virt-who-0.11-4.el7.noarch.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
subscription-manager-1.13.9-1.el7.x86_64
python-rhsm-1.13.8-1.el7.x86_64
virt-who-0.11-4.el7.noarch
katello-headpin-1.4.3.28-1.el6sam_splice.noarch
candlepin-0.9.6.5-1.el6sam.noarch

Verified process:
1 Check the /usr/lib/systemd/system/virt-who.service, it hasn't include any syslog configure, therefore, verify it.
# cat /usr/lib/systemd/system/virt-who.service
