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.

Fixed In Version: virt-who-0.10-8.el6_6.1
Doc Type: Bug Fix
Doc Text:
Previously, the virt-who agent was too slow when reading the association between hosts and guests from VMWare ESX systems. As a consequence, when communicating with large ESX (or vCenter) deployments, it took a lot of time to send updates about virtual guests to the Subscription Asset Manager (SAM) and Red Hat Satellite. With this update, virt-who uses an improved method to obtain host-guest association, which accelerates the aforementioned process.

Description Jan Kurik 2015-03-02 07:50:59 UTC 
This bug has been copied from bug #1155679 and has been proposed
to be backported to 6.6 z-stream (EUS).
Comment 4 Radek Novacek 2015-03-10 11:07:36 UTC 
It is not possible to backport the patch directly, but basically the same changes can be applied to the older version of virt-who.
Comment 5 Radek Novacek 2015-03-17 09:41:38 UTC 
Fixed in virt-who-0.10-8.el6_6.1.

Hi
  I'm xingge from entitlement QE, and we are in charge of virt-who testing, but we don't have the environment to do the performance testing with a large amount of machines. can we let the bug reproter to verify this bug?
  Thanks a lot

Hi Xingge,
sorry forgot that BZ comment editing doesn't send out notifications - dgoodwin helped confirm yesterday that version 0.12 (which is newer and includes this fix and others) is recommended so I'd cleared the NEEDINFO and updated Comment 12 in place. :)

virt-who.0-12-esx-rhsm.log

Tested in Customer Environment.  rhsm.log now has a lot of noise but everything appears to be functioning properly. Can we confirm the cause, if it is necessary to have this, or if this may have an impact besides extra logging?  It would be great if someone could explain it so we can make a KCS and be able to explain it to customers.
Comment 16 Radek Novacek 2015-04-07 08:02:31 UTC 
These error messages are not relevant to the z-stream issue that is described in this bug. Let's move the discussion to bug 1155679.
Comment 17 xingge 2015-04-13 09:56:39 UTC 
Since the log issue is moved to another bug should we set this bug as Verified to close it and push the errata to the next step?
Comment 18 Radek Novacek 2015-04-14 06:25:52 UTC 
I think this bug can be marked as verified.
