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 John Sefler 2016-08-10 22:15:03 UTC 
Description of problem:
As a result of implementing the fix for bug 1334916, a new section has been added to the rhsm.conf file.  The corresponding man page should also be updated with a helpful explanation for this new section.


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
[root@jsefler-rhel7 ~]# subscription-manager version
server type: Red Hat Subscription Management
subscription management server: 2.0.16-1
subscription management rules: 5.20
subscription-manager: 1.17.10-1.el7
python-rhsm: 1.17.6-1.el7


How reproducible:


Steps to Reproduce:
[root@jsefler-rhel7 ~]# egrep "^\[" /etc/rhsm/rhsm.conf
[server]
[rhsm]
[rhsmcertd]
[logging]            <==== INTRODUCED BY Github TRACKER FROM Bug 1334916

[root@jsefler-rhel7 ~]# man -P cat rhsm.conf | egrep "^\["
[SERVER] OPTIONS
[RHSM] OPTIONS
[RHSMCERTD] OPTIONS
                     <==== EXPECTED [LOGGING]


Actual results:
  above

Expected results:
  the man page for rhsm.conf should have found a hit on [LOGGING]

Additional info:
  When fixed, QE should run "man -P cat rhsm.conf" to review the new section.

[root@dhcp35-138 ~]# man -P cat rhsm.conf | egrep "^\["
[SERVER] OPTIONS
[RHSM] OPTIONS
[RHSMCERTD] OPTIONS

[root@dhcp35-138 ~]# rpm -qa | grep subscription-manager
subscription-manager-1.17.11-1.el7.x86_64


man -P cat rhsm.conf
RHSM.CONF(5)    
              
<snip>

[LOGGING] OPTIONS
       default_log_level
           The default log level for all loggers in subscription-manager, python-rhsm, rhsmd, and rhsmcertd.  Note: Other keys in this section will override this
           value for the specified logger.

       MODULE_NAME[.SUBMODULE ...] = [log_level]
           Logging can be configured on a module-level basis via entries of the format above where:
               module_name is subscription_manager, rhsm, or rhsm-app.

               submodule can be optionally specified to further override the logging level down to a specific file.

               log_level is the log level to set the specified logger (one of: DEBUG, INFO, WARNING, ERROR, or CRITICAL).
