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:
Fail to check manual page for subscription-manger by command line "man subscription-manager" and reminder that:No manual entry for subscription-manager

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
env:
redhat-virtualization-host-4.1-20170324.2.x86_64

subscription-manager version:
[root@hp-z220-15 rhsm]# subscription-manager version
server type: Red Hat Subscription Management
subscription management server: 0.9.51.21-1
subscription management rules: 5.15.1
subscription-manager: 1.17.15-1.el7
python-rhsm: 1.17.9-1.el7

rhel:
[root@hp-z220-15 rhsm]# cat /etc/redhat-release 
Red Hat Enterprise Linux release 7.3

How reproducible:
always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.RHVH:RHV 4.1 Beta
redhat-virtualization-host-4.1-20170324.2.x86_64
2.Try to see the manual page for subscription-manger
[root@hp-z220-15 rhsm]# man subscription-manager
No manual entry for subscription-manager

Actual results:
As step 2.

Expected results:
Show the manual page for subscription-manger successfully

Additional info:

I suspect that the system is set up to exclude man pages on purpose. This could happen in a couple of places:
1) when the image is built.
2) (if I recall correctly, there is a global setting equivalent to using --excludedocs).

Does /etc/yum.conf include tsflags=nodocs ?

I check the yum.conf and there is no configure of tsflags:
[root@hp-z220-15 rhsm]# cat /etc/yum.conf | grep tsflags
[root@hp-z220-15 rhsm]# 
[root@hp-z220-15 rhsm]# cat /etc/yum.conf
[main]
cachedir=/var/cache/yum/$basearch/$releasever
keepcache=0
debuglevel=2
logfile=/var/log/yum.log
exactarch=1
obsoletes=1
gpgcheck=1
plugins=1
installonly_limit=3

Are there man pages present for other tools? (ex. man yum)

There is also no pages present for yum:
[root@hp-z220-15 ~]# man yum
No manual entry for yum

Since man pages are also not present for yum, manpages were disabled outside of subman, so not an issue with subscription-manager. Please let the rhvh team know if you believe this is still an issue.
