Description Jan Dobes 2017-12-14 08:51:14 UTC

Description of problem:
In satellite-sync --list-channels output are unsupported channels marked as

"e = channel no longer supported (end-of-service)"

(And there might be other places using this EOL information, please investigate)

This information is based on 'eol' column in rhnChannel table in RHN database. Please note this values is not stored in rhnChannel table in Satellite database.

This feature is missing in cdn-sync. Let's add it here, this eol value is available in cdn-sync mapping files same as it used to be available from RHN.

Maybe we should change the wording from "end-of-service" to just "EOL".

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Sync some EOL channel on Satellite 5.7 using satellite-sync and on 5.8 using cdn-sync
2. Execute "satellite-sync -l" (5.7) and "cdn-sync -l" (5.8) commands and check output.

Actual results:
satellite-sync output displays information that this channel is EOL
cdn-sync output doesn't display information that this channel is EOL

Expected results:
cdn-sync output displays information that this channel is EOL

Comment 1 Jan Dobes 2018-01-02 15:05:33 UTC

After a closer look on satellite-sync code I need to correct this BZ's description. It seems that satellite-sync's end-of-service notice is not based on EOL date in RHN database but purely on fact if there is previously synced channel in Sat DB and now isn't available from RHN for some reason. So in fact it doesn't display any warning for channel with expired end-of-life date. When we start displaying info based on this EOL date in cdn-sync, it'll be a new thing in Sat 5 different to satellite-sync behavior.

Comment 2 Jan Dobes 2018-01-02 16:20:18 UTC

first enhancement, mark EOL channels in "cdn-sync -l" output, example:

Comment 5 Jan Dobes 2018-01-08 10:57:42 UTC

EOL channel list now contains also channels that were synced previously but now are unknown to cdn-sync-mappings (Bug 1507553).
