Description Alexander Rydekull 2015-05-29 09:08:39 EDT 
Description of problem:
We have configured virt-who to connect to both RHEV and VMware.

VMware information does not appear inside Satellite 6, we can see the logs showing reports going from virt-who to satellite and foreman log giving a 200 ok, but it seems like its only the RHEV-information and not the vmware-information.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
RHEL7, Sat 6.0.8, virt-who-0.11-5.el7.noarch

How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Install Sat6, virt-who
2. Configure virt-who to connect to satellite, rhev and vmware
3. Start services

Actual results:
VMware did not appear

Expected results:
VMware hosts to appear

Additional info:
After a while, looking at the issue, all vmware hosts suddently appeared so it indicates that something is wrong. Since our interval was set to 600 seconds from the start and we lowered it to 200 seconds. And it took well over an hour for stuff to appear.

Comment 2 RHEL Product and Program Management 2015-05-29 09:12:28 EDT 
Since this issue was entered in Red Hat Bugzilla, the release flag has been
set to ? to ensure that it is properly evaluated for this release.
Comment 4 Bryan Kearney 2015-05-29 11:07:05 EDT 
Please try testing this with two virt whos, one per each virt-fabric.
Comment 6 Alexander Rydekull 2015-06-04 04:00:55 EDT 
We have tested by starting to virt-who on the Satellite (actually requires you to copy and modify virt-who to change the PID, since virt-who doesnt seem to support supplying a speciific configuration on the command-line).

[root@sat6 ~]# diff /usr/bin/virt-who /usr/bin/virt-who2
9c9
<     exec /usr/bin/python /usr/share/virt-who/virtwho.py "$@"
---
>     exec /usr/bin/python /usr/share/virt-who/virtwho2.py "$@"
[root@sat6 ~]# diff /usr/share/virt-who/virtwho.py /usr/share/virt-who/virtwho2.py
65c65
< PIDFILE = "/var/run/virt-who.pid"
---
> PIDFILE = "/var/run/virt-who2.pid"

So its running virt-who.py towards RHEV and virt-who2.py towards VMware.

With that being said. Running it like this, it just doesn't seem like its working properly either.
1. It doesnt seem to follow the set interval
2. I sort of dont see alot of output from virtwho.py in the log

[root@sat6 ~]# grep -i INTERVAL /etc/sysconfig/virt-who 
#VIRTWHO_INTERVAL=0
VIRTWHO_INTERVAL=600
[root@sat6 ~]# grep virtwho /var/log/rhsm/rhsm.log | sed 's/: .*//g'

So, no, I dont see that like its working. Looking at this, the only thing I can see making it possible is running virt-who on multiple machines.
Comment 7 William Poteat 2015-08-10 11:31:38 EDT 
You really should not try to run 2 virt-who instances at one time on the same machine.

That said, the current build of virt-who tagged into Satellite should be able to run against more than one type of hypervisor. Please retest with the current build.
Comment 8 William Poteat 2015-08-10 11:35:33 EDT 
Also, those entries in /etc/sysconfig/virt-who are not config entries. They are examples of environment variables. You need to set them in the environment.
