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 Yogita 2018-04-04 11:21:04 UTC 
Description of problem:
Systemctl is-enabled command showing status of rpcbind as indirect instead of enabled/disabled

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

# rpm -qa | grep rpcbind
rpcbind-0.2.0-42.el7.x86_64

# rpm -qa | grep systemd
systemd-219-42.el7.x86_64
systemd-sysv-219-42.el7.x86_64
systemd-libs-219-42.el7.x86_64
systemd-python-219-42.el7.x86_64

How reproducible:

Steps to Reproduce:
# systemctl status rpcbind
● rpcbind.service - RPC bind service
   Loaded: loaded (/usr/lib/systemd/system/rpcbind.service; indirect; vendor preset: enabled)
   Active: inactive (dead)
# systemctl enable rpcbind
# systemctl is-enabled rpcbind
indirect                     <--- indirect was not expected here, ideally should be enabled/disabled

# systemctl status rpcbind
● rpcbind.service - RPC bind service
   Loaded: loaded (/usr/lib/systemd/system/rpcbind.service; indirect; vendor preset: enabled)
   Active: inactive (dead)


Actual results:
# systemctl is-enabled rpcbind
indirect                     <--- indirect was not expected here, ideally should be enabled/disabled

Expected results:
# systemctl is-enabled rpcbind
enabled


Additional info:
From automation point of view (using tools like puppet,ansible,chef), customer requires that the indirect output should something that should be more precise.

Hi Yogita,

Looks to me like this issue has been resolved in rpcbind-0.2.0-43.el7
(via Bug 1425663).  If so, maybe we can duplicate this to bz1425663
(change back to rpcbind).  Apologies didn't remember it before.

Please help to have another test with the latest rpcbind package.

Hi Yongcheng,

Apologise for late response. I have informed this to the customer, but the customer have not shared any update on this.

I tired this on my test server and it was working as expected. Thanks alot, I'm closing this bugzilla case as there no further action needed.
