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 of problem:
The man page for subcription-manager currently reports the following for the servicelevel module...
servicelevel OPTIONS
The servicelevel command displays the current configured
service level preference for products installed on the
system. For example, if the service-level preference is
standard, then a subscription with a standard service
level is selected when auto-attaching subscriptions to
the system.
The servicelevel command does not set the service
level for the system; it only shows its current
setting or available settings. The service-level
preference must be set in the Subscription Man-
ager GUI.
--list Lists the available service levels.
--show Shows the system’s current service-level prefer-
ence. If a service level is not set, then there
is a message saying it is not set.
--unset
Removes any previously set service-level prefer-
ence.
The sentence "The service-level preference must be set in the Subscription Manager GUI." should be removed. This is no longer true.
The following command line options are missing from the man page description...
--set=SERVICE_LEVEL service level to apply to this system
--insecure do not check the server SSL certificate against
available certificate authorities
