3. Try and provision, tested against Bare Metal and RHEV computer cluster, both fails. 

Actual results:
Channel is not available to be used during kickstart. 
<Please see attachment>


Expected results:
Channel is available and packages are installed. 


Additional info:
The host does finally provision but none of the post installation scripts get processed during provisioning. You can select the release post after the host is stood up and it will then have access to the repositories.

Comment 3 Justin Sherrill 2015-11-11 18:39:23 UTC
What version of subscription-manager is used?  That feature is only usable in newer versions of subscription-manager (looking like 1.12.1-1 or newer)

Comment 4 Dan Lavu 2015-11-17 17:15:41 UTC
RHEL7.1
subscription-manager-1.13.22-1.el7.x86_64

RHEL6.7
subscription-manager-1.14.10-1.el6.x86_64

Comment 6 Peter Vreman 2017-09-15 15:57:08 UTC
I use this daily to set release_version to make sure EUS channels are set. This works without problem since 6.1.x times. Before i had a workaround implemeneted the die an additional 'subscription-manager release --set 7.x' to make sure 7.x was used instead of 7Server to allow the EUS channels.

rhsm-debug content: A working and a problematic system, under the same SATserver and AK.

Hi Barnaby,

I have it reproduced in my test Satellite environment. Please find attached the debug file for a working and a bad system.

Both are registered to the same AK (ak_RHEL72).
Both were provisioned by Satellite.

The bad system tries to fetch the content from the 7Server tree, instead of 7.2.
It is worked around by defining the --release flag in the register command.

The only diference is that the bad system is a physical system, whereas the system that registers seamlessly is a KVM guest.

Comment 12 Barnaby Court 2017-10-04 17:37:47 UTC
Rodrigo, can you provide the candlepin log file from /var/log/candlepin/candlepin.log on your satellite server?

Please find it attached. Thanks for your review!

Comment 14 Barnaby Court 2017-10-10 13:54:37 UTC
Everything in the logs & information looks clean. Rodrigo, are you able to reproduce this on a current Satellite 6.2 server?

Hi Barnaby;

Yep: Sat 6.2.11.

See Comment #15, where Jiri states that his customers also have the same issue in the same scenario as me.

Comment 17 Peter Vreman 2017-10-18 12:35:14 UTC
I also see the issue now on Sat 6.2.12, before on Sat6.2.10 i have not seen it.
When i subscribe to an ActKey that has release 7.2 set the subscription-manager does not set it correct and the following yum commands fail

Hallo herr Vreman;

For what is worth: They are baremetal systems, right?

Comment 19 Peter Vreman 2017-10-18 12:43:54 UTC
Yes, the systems were i have seen it are bare-metal systems. I did not try yet on a VM.

But i wanted to confirm that now with 6.2.12 i also see issues. In contrast to my message from 2017-09-15 that was based on experience with with 6.2.9 and 6.2.10.

Vielen danke. So it seems that we have found a pattern then.
Let's see what Barnaby finds from here.

My best regards,

Comment 21 Peter Vreman 2017-10-18 13:00:06 UTC
Confirmed that it is working for a VM. I only have the issue with the physical server

Comment 22 Rodrigo A B Freire 2017-10-18 13:04:58 UTC
Added tracker: https://access.redhat.com/solutions/3178281

Comment 23 Peter Vreman 2017-10-19 08:07:44 UTC
If it is candlepin related, for me it worked in Sat6.2.10 with:

/var/log/yum.log:Jun 23 06:36:59 Updated: candlepin-0.9.54.21-1.el7.noarch
/var/log/yum.log:Jun 23 06:37:19 Updated: candlepin-selinux-0.9.54.21-1.el7.noarch

And it fails now in Sat6.2.12 with:

/var/log/yum.log:Oct 09 08:12:35 Updated: candlepin-0.9.54.23-1.el7.noarch
/var/log/yum.log:Oct 09 08:12:53 Updated: candlepin-selinux-0.9.54.23-1.el7.noarch

On the client i use RHEL7.2-EUS

Comment 25 Rodrigo A B Freire 2017-10-26 09:54:30 UTC
Set keyword 'Regression', as per Comment 23.

Comment 32 Nagoor Shaik 2017-11-09 17:12:37 UTC
Workaround until this bugzilla is fixed 

To set a release of 7.3 using bootstrap.py run following command

 # python bootstrap.py -l admin -s satellite.example.com -o 'Example' -L 'DC'  -a default-key  -g RHEL7 -S '--release=7.3'

-- nagoor

Comment 38 Rodrigo A B Freire 2017-12-05 17:58:20 UTC
Fix available in Upstream tracker.

Porting back to Satellite.

Comment 39 Barnaby Court 2017-12-07 16:29:40 UTC
Fixed upstream in candlepin-0.9.54.26-1

is it possible to get a hotfix for 6.2.13

Comment 44 Lukas Pramuk 2018-02-09 12:36:46 UTC
VERIFIED.

@satellite-6.3.0-23.0.el7sat.noarch (Snap 35)
candlepin-2.1.14-1.el7.noarch

by the following manual reproducer:

1. Have a physical RHEL7 host (minor version doesn't matter, used RHEL7.3)

2. Enable and sync RH repo "Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7 Server RPMs x86_64 7.2"

3. You can use the DOV or a CV with just this one repo published

4. Create AK and assign it with the DOV or the CV and change "Release Version" to "7.2"

5. Use the AK for the physical host to register

6. At the host check the result:
