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.

The fcoe config file for NIC is created using /etc/fcoe/eth-cfgx example config file by replacing relevant lines with configured values.
It is eating newlines of the value lines during the process. For example:

original eth-cfgx:
<snip>
## Type:       yes/no
## Default:    no
# Indicate if DCB service is required at the Ethernet port
# Normally set to "yes"
DCB_REQUIRED="yes"

## Type:|_______yes/no
## Default:|____no
# Indicate if VLAN discovery should be handled by fcoemon
# Normally set to "yes"
AUTO_VLAN="yes"
</snip>

becomes:

<snip>
## Type:       yes/no
## Default:    no
# Indicate if DCB service is required at the Ethernet port
# Normally set to "yes"
DCB_REQUIRED="no"
## Type:|_______yes/no
## Default:|____no
# Indicate if VLAN discovery should be handled by fcoemon
# Normally set to "yes"
AUTO_VLAN="yes"
</snip>

when setting DCB_REQUIRED value, note removing the blank line after DCB_REQUIRED="no".

The config file is still valid due to additional newline in the original eth-cfgx but it may change in the future.

Verified on RHEL-7.3-20160901.1 with anaconda-21.48.22.86-1

New lines in /etc/fcoe/eth-cfgx configs are not eaten anymore so generated file adheres to convention defined in example file.

*with python-blivet-0.61.15.55-1
