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:

Currently subscription-manager does not upload fqdn with its facts, only equivalent of 'hostname'.  It would be very useful for it to also upload the equivalent of 'hostname -f'

I expect this would be uploaded as something like 'network.fqdn'


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
subscription-manager-1.15.9-15.el7

How reproducible:
always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.  configure your system such that 'hostname' returns the host's shortname, and 'hostname -f' returns the fqdn
2.  Run 'subscription-manager facts --list | grep fqdn'

Actual results:
no fqdn listed


Expected results:
should upload fqdn.

Additional info:
This is extremely important for Satellite 6.2 and we are planning on building in support for this fact.

Some 3rd party software requires 'hostname' be set to the shortname.

Retested on ;

subscription management server: 0.9.51.21-1
subscription management rules: 5.15.1
subscription-manager: 1.19.8-1.el7
python-rhsm: 1.19.5-1.el7


The test system is configured to have a short hostname along with FQDN 

# hostname
bkr-hv03-guest06.dsal.lab.eng.bos.redhat.com


# hostname -s
bkr-hv03-guest06


# hostname -f
bkr-hv03-guest06.dsal.lab.eng.bos.redhat.com

Now verify the fact value of network.fqdn,

# subscription-manager facts --list | grep fqdn
network.fqdn: bkr-hv03-guest06.dsal.lab.eng.bos.redhat.com

# subscription-manager facts --list | grep network
network.fqdn: bkr-hv03-guest06.dsal.lab.eng.bos.redhat.com
network.hostname: bkr-hv03-guest06.dsal.lab.eng.bos.redhat.com


Observed that now fqdn fact value is collected along with the already existing fact network.hostname.
