Description Eko 2015-12-30 09:58:40 UTC 
Description of problem:
Now virt-who can check the host/guests updates after 60s, if there are some changes, virt-who will send the mapping info to server, if no changes, virt-who should output some message, such as:
"No change in report gathered using config: "env/cmdline", report not sent."

but for libvirt mode, virt-who can't print any message if no changes after 60s.


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
virt-who-0.16-1.el6.noarch

How reproducible:
always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. enable debug option
VIRTWHO_DEBUG=1

2. config virt-who for remote libvirt mode, such as:
VIRTWHO_LIBVIRT=1
VIRTWHO_LIBVIRT_OWNER=ACME_Corporation
VIRTWHO_LIBVIRT_ENV=Library
VIRTWHO_LIBVIRT_SERVER=10.66.144.8
VIRTWHO_LIBVIRT_USERNAME=root
VIRTWHO_LIBVIRT_PASSWORD=redhat


3. restart virt-who service and check rhsm.log
# /etc/init.d/virt-who restart
# tail -f /var/log/rhsm/rhsm.log

4. make sure no any host/guest changes in 60s, and then check the rhsm.log



Actual results:
virt-who show nothing after 60s


Expected results:
virt-who should show some info after 60s, such as:
"No change in report gathered using config: "env/cmdline", report not sent."


Additional info:
Comment 2 Radek Novacek 2016-02-11 09:27:57 UTC 
virt-who in libvirt mode doesn't check for changes every 60 seconds. It listens to events provided by libvirt instead. So it shouldn't write that nothing was changed into the logfile. It only writes something when some change occurs. It this acceptable?
Comment 3 Eko 2016-02-17 06:17:25 UTC 
OK, I will update our test case for libvirt mode, so close this bug as NOTABUG.
Comment 4 Eko 2016-02-26 07:06:13 UTC 
as discussion, virt-who should check for changes each `interval` second no matter if it's listening for events, to keep the test consistency.
that means libvirt and kvm will show the "Waiting" info according to the interval value when no trigger event occurs, so reopen this issue.
Comment 5 Radek Novacek 2016-03-08 09:55:15 UTC 
This should be already fixed in virt-who-0.16-6.el6.
Comment 6 Liushihui 2016-03-11 07:51:54 UTC 
In the latest virt-who-0.16-6.el6.noarch, virt-who send mapping info to server per 60s when no host/guests updates for libvirt mode. Please see the detail as the following:

Comment 7 Radek Novacek 2016-03-15 14:33:03 UTC 
Right, it doesn't work in local libvirt mode. I have fixed it upstream [1]. But I don't think it's necessary to fix it in RHEL-6.8, we'll fix it in 6.9.


Let's focus on remote hypervisors for now.

Comment 9 Liushihui 2016-03-24 06:18:38 UTC 
Verified it on virt-who-0.16-7.el6 since virt-who will show notice info if no update in host/guest mapping when virt-who work at remote libvirt mode. Therefore,verify it.

The log info as the following:
