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.

Comment 2 Ryan McCabe 2018-03-01 16:07:35 UTC 
It looks like this is broken because the disabled list is taking precedence over the enabled list.

For the moment, I think it should work if you explicitly disable only what needs disabling. It will need fixing upstream to make it work as it ought to.
Comment 3 Eduardo Otubo 2020-09-29 12:55:05 UTC 
Can you double check if you meet this issue with latest versions of cloud-init like RHEL-7.9/cloud-init-19.4?
Comment 4 Christopher Wawak 2020-09-29 13:25:54 UTC 
Unfortunately, I don't have access to the appropriate environments (or the same job) that would allow me to replicate this. Sorry, all!
Comment 5 Eduardo Otubo 2020-09-29 13:33:00 UTC 
@huzhao, can you reproduce this issue with latest release?
Comment 6 xiachen 2020-09-30 07:58:55 UTC 
This is not a bug. It is caused by using the wrong parameter "activation_key" in configuration rh_subscription module.
The correct parameter should be "activation-key".
see the example here, https://cloudinit.readthedocs.io/en/latest/topics/modules.html#redhat-subscription

and I checked source code, it works as expected to show the message "rh_subscription: module not configured", so close it as NOT A BUG.
detail in cloudinit/config/cc_rh_subscription.py


Tested rh_subscription module with disable and enable repo, 
cloud-init-0.7.9-9.el7_4.2.x86_64 & rhel 7.4
cloud-init-19.4-7.el7.x86_64 & rhel7.9
Result: PASS.
