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.

Red Hat Product Errata RHBA-2016:0797 0 normal SHIPPED_LIVE python-rhsm and subscription-manager bug fix and enhancement update 2017-01-06 16:31:50 UTC

Comment 2 Barnaby Court 2015-11-16 20:48:05 UTC 
We should either report that we are using the default or error because the config is bad.
Comment 4 qianzhan 2016-01-11 05:24:11 UTC 
Verified.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

subscription-manager: 1.16.6-1.el6
python-rhsm: 1.16.5-1.el6


1. Unset manage_repos field and yum considers using managed repositories as default with square brackets:

[root@dhcp-128-64 ~]# subscription-manager register 
Registering to: samserv.redhat.com:443/sam/api
Username: admin
Password: 
The system has been registered with ID: 264d5fb6-d468-4511-8000-e49c42fb0728 

[root@dhcp-128-64 ~]# subscription-manager config | grep manage_repos
   manage_repos = [1]

[root@dhcp-128-64 ~]# subscription-manager list --consumed
No consumed subscription pools to list

[root@dhcp-128-64 ~]# subscription-manager config --rhsm.manage_repos=""

[root@dhcp-128-64 ~]# subscription-manager config | grep manage_repos
   manage_repos = [1]

2. Attach subscription and unset manage_repos, and yum considers using managed repositories as default with square brackets.

[root@dhcp-128-64 ~]# subscription-manager attach --auto
