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 support organization has made a strategic decision to deemphasize Red Hat Access functionality (i.e. support case creation, KB access, etc.) and focus instead on Red Hat Insights[1].

Remove plugin support from IdM in RHEL Web UI.

[1] https://access.redhat.com/insights/info/

This will likely need to be solved with RPM Obsoletes dependency as the plugin activates itself whenever it is present on the system (during upgrade from RHEL-7.2 for example).

FYI: We have removed the plugin from RHEV 3.6 and created the following KCS article[1] for customers.  We should probably do something similar for IPA.  However, I need to know when you'll be removing it.

[1] https://access.redhat.com/solutions/2137681

Current plan is to remove it in the next RHEL-7 minor release, i.e. RHEL-7.3.

This is only a packaging change.

ipa should make sure that redhat-access-plugin-ipa is not present after upgrading to ipa-server-4.4 and that it couldn't be installed when ipa-server 4.4 is present.
