Description of problem: As we learned in bug 1300816, a "pSeries" ppc64 platform should be regarded as a guest system and therefore have a non-Unknown virt.uuid fact. An automated test was assembled to assert this test, but it failed on the ppc64 system shown below... ssh root.eng.bos.redhat.com subscription-manager facts --list | grep --text "proc_cpuinfo.common" proc_cpuinfo.common.machine: CHRP IBM,8247-22L proc_cpuinfo.common.model: IBM,8247-22L proc_cpuinfo.common.platform: pSeries ssh root.eng.bos.redhat.com subscription-manager facts --list | grep --text "virt.uuid" virt.uuid: Unknown <===== EXPECTED A REAL UUID The ppc64 machine reserved for this test was: Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): subscription-manager-1.16.8-2.el6.ppc64 python-rhsm-1.16.6-1.el6.ppc64 Additional info: https://rhsm-jenkins.rhev-ci-vms.eng.rdu2.redhat.com/job/rhsm-rhel-6.8-AllDistros-AcceptanceTests/PLATFORM=RedHatEnterpriseLinux6-Server-ppc64,label=rhsm/30/TestNG_Report/ https://beaker.engineering.redhat.com/jobs/1234845 https://beaker.engineering.redhat.com/view/ibm-p8-03-lp7.rhts.eng.bos.redhat.com#essentials
