Description of problem: yum updateinfo lists errata/packages even on a fully updated rhel 7 content host Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): Satellite 6.1.5 How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Sync rhel 7 x86_64 repo in satellite, create content view, link the repo, publish, promote to right environments. Add a subscription and create an activation key. Link the activation key with the content view and subscription. 2. Register and subscribe a rhel 7 content host to satellite: [content-host]# cat /etc/redhat-release Red Hat Enterprise Linux Server release 7.2 (Maipo) 3. Update the content host: [content-host]# yum update 4.

Expected results: `yum updateinfo` on a fully updated content host should not list any available errata. Additional info:
One errata entry in the list - `RHEA-2015:1863 enhancement tzdata-2015g-2.el6.noarch` is a rhel6 errata so I think this specific one is related to https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1266072 but the other errata are all rhel 7 ones.
Moving 6.2 bugs out to sat-backlog.
At first this sounded like a duplicate of https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1255875 However, when examining the output of the 'yum updateinfo' some things stood out. Take these 3 lines/errata: RHBA-2015:2147 bugfix device-mapper-7:2.02.130-5.el7.x86_64 RHBA-2015:2374 bugfix libref_array-0.5.0-25.el7.x86_64 RHBA-2015:2113 bugfix perl-CPAN-5.16.3-286.el7.noarch In all 3 cases, if you look at the errata information on the support portal, you will see that the packages specified by yum aren't actually included in them and there is something awfully suspicious going on. In each of these cases, the version of the package doesn't exist, but some OTHER package in that errata has that version. Take RHBA-2015:2147 for example, it does not include: device-mapper-7:2.02.130-5.el7.x86_64, instead it includes device-mapper-1.02.107-5.el7.x86_64.rpm However, it DOES include lvm2-2.02.130-5.el7 (the same release and version as the mistaken package version). So either: a) the cdn messed up and put things in the errata incorrectly or b) pulp messed up and messed up the creation of the errata during syncing There is no way to tell from the included data. Is the issue still reproducible? and do you have a reproducer?
@Justin, I haven't seen this issue lately. @jalviso, have you seen this in recent testing? or do you happen to have a reproducer? If not, I think we need to close this one out and reopen if we see this again.
Hi, On a newly updated RHEL7 (using a newly synced/published/promoted Default Organization View) registered to Sat6.2.12, I can no longer see this issue; # yum updateinfo Loaded plugins: product-id, search-disabled-repos, subscription-manager rhel-7-server-rpms/7Server/x86_64 | 2.0 kB 00:00:00 Security: kernel-3.10.0-693.11.1.el7.x86_64 is an installed security update Security: kernel-3.10.0-693.el7.x86_64 is the currently running version updateinfo summary done <==== here, i haven't rebooted the vm yet [root@sat63-test-12 ~]# yum updateinfo list Loaded plugins: product-id, search-disabled-repos, subscription-manager rhel-7-server-rpms/7Server/x86_64 | 2.0 kB 00:00:00 updateinfo list done Regards, Josephine Alviso GSS - APAC
Thanks Josephine! I'll go ahead and close this. If you see any more customers hitting this please feel free to reopen
